So incompatibility is somehow a lesser status than any other sort of concern?
Why?
What is particularly strange is that this seems to be taking the charter
language and using it to deprecate the concern about incompatibility, rather
than strengthen it.
And forgive my ignorance of IETF process, but I do not recall seeing such a
stricture from IETF management asserted previously. After so many years, I
doubt that anything is literally unprecedented, but this does seem pretty close.
