It's only under consideration to the extent that any other independent 
submission
is, that is, not much.

Is there an official place to register adverse comments? I took a look at
the IETF web site, and couldn't find one.

That is what last call is for - which does not usually happen for informational
drafts - these are just decided by IESG & RFC-Editor directly, What you can do is post your comment to general ietf list (i.e. ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org) and CC that email post to iesg(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org and to rfc-editor(_at_)rfc-editor(_dot_)org(_dot_) You need to emphasize that draft publication could be harmful to internet engineering practices and conclusions made are overgeneralized and not entirely logical.

Also draft has some format problems for example it has only one References section (and new rules require separate Informative and Normative reference sections) and none of the sections are numbered (although that may not be required for if there is no TOC is there and TOC is not required for drafts of less then 15 pages - still unnumbered sections is unusual).
