   The sad truth is, the IESG no longer has the spare cycles to "Just
say No."

I was on the receiving end of an IESG that simply stalled a document
until the WG changed its approach, because of IETF concerns, so I
disagree with that claim.  But if it is true, then we might as well
give up.  If there's weak IETF consensus (with some strong objections)
to a document that comes from a WG and has strong consensus inside the
WG, the _only_ people who can say no are the IESG; and they must.

Best regards,
