Jim,

Mark asked a question and you posted a response that was not a response, but instead referred to diversity of views. If you had something in mind other than attempting to claim that Mark's query was not going to get a successful resolution, what was it?

Given your followup response, it seems odd for a document author to post such a note, since it isn't clear how it aids working group discussion seeking resolution of an open question.

As for 5016, you are highlighting one of the problems with calling such documents "requirements" since slavish adherence to its desires eliminates any benefits from later insight.
