There is that. But don't forget that ADs mostly read everything
in IESG review and often comment. Even leaving aside DISCUSSes,
if every IETF LC draft got a bunch of AD review comments, then
the IETF LC would be much busier than now. And its in the nature
of IETFers to chime in. So this would I suspect increase everyone's
load, if it works, and not just ADs.

More community participation at IETF last call is a good thing. 

The problem with AD's time is that they will need to review at IETF last call, 
and then may need to review again after some changes have been made (including 
changes not related to their own issue). That's where the increased AD load 
comes from.
