You seem to ignore the possibility that they could be worth keeping in a
form other than RFCs. I don't think the world wants the RFC pool to grow
_that_ rapidly, but I think an important subset of users needs persistent
access to older drafts.
Making a 'publish it as an RFC or discard it' claim may be nice
rhetorically, but it's not a very useful answer to the problem being raised.
