*independent* means that. It does NOT mean IETF-family controlled.
  

I would first see independent submissions abolished altogether.  There
are many publishing outlets.  This is not the 1970s.  The term RFC has
been appropriated by the IETF community.

The term RFC is one the IETF is getting a free ride on.

RFCs core to the Internet itself were independent, pre-IETF submissions.
It is THEY that establish the utility of the series, not the IETF.
