Not publishing it at all is an alternative.  It would send an
unmistakable message to wannabe-authors, that they should use the
"independent" path, unless they're a friend of a friend of an AD.

That is a complete mischaracterization. The intent in publishing
this (and doing so in parallel with draft-klensin-rfc-independent)
is to make it much clearer to authors when they should choose one
path and when they should choose another.
