Frankly the feedback does not need to seen by anyone other than the

So your point is that the chair of the nominating committee should not
know who the candidates are?
You might consider the text in sections 4(3) and 5(9) of RFC 3777:
---------------------------
3. The nominating committee comprises at least a Chair, 10 voting
volunteers, 3 liaisons, and an advisor.
---------------------------
9. All members of the nominating committee may participate in all
deliberations.
The emphasis of this rule is that no member can be explicitly
excluded from any deliberation. However, a member may
individually choose not to participate in a deliberation.
---------------------------
Exactly. That is the inner scope of the confidentiality for all
matters. There's an outer scope, because the Nomcom also solicits
input on candidates from whomever it chooses to consult, and naturally
those people (a) know the names they are asked to comment on and (b) are
bound by confidentiality about those names.
I don't see any ambiguity in the rules.
