As John pointed out, support for checking type 99 has decreased and
continues to decrease rather than increase. So waiting longer is not going
to solve the issue.

Putting a statement in an RFC does not mean that the world will
automatically advance towards that particular end state.

Forcing a WG to adopt a position to suit another constituency is not going
to lead them to advocate for that position in deployment constituencies.
Particularly when the original constituency does nothing to advance
deployment.
