has to support simple regardless of PS vs. DS, then who cares? There's
no effect on interop.


In addition, DS has become meaningless.

Very few of standard-track documents ever go beyond PS.


Okay, so let me correct the specific data point of DS. We could delay to WG last call. A year ago, I would have thought that we'd never be able to drop a canonicalization like relaxed. It looks like that was pessimistic. I just don't think the time is now to drop it. If we agreed now to revisit during last call whether it was to stay or go, I'd be happy.
