It suggests that there is a perception that the current process isn't working.

I don't know whether there is risk or not. It's not the manner or the people that raised the concerns that matters (to me).

The current structures pretty much ensure that these issues only get
raised by fringe elements.

I won't qualify people who raise such issues as fringe elements. I believe that they are an important, and somewhat overlooked, part of the process.
