I don't think there is hair splitting going on here; I think the issues
that are being raised are quite real and important.  It's not the IESG's
fault if the nomcom does x.  It is the IESG's fault if the IESG takes on
tasks delegated to the nomcom in RFC 3777.  As you are aware, I have
taken concerns I believe are best handled by the IAB and nomcom to the
IAB and nomcom.
