The draft deadline is to provide for a break between the time of
submission and the meeting proper. a lot of work has to be done to
agendas, reading and so on in the interceeding two weeks. Nevertheless
we have an established system for  exception handling so if for whatever
reason a updated draft really needs to be posted in the next two weeks,
ask the responsible AD, and it will be addressed.

Why force people to use the exception mechanisms when a little bit
of proactive action can avoid the issue altogether?

I doubt very much this is the sole reason where recourse to exception
handling is necessary.

This doesn't need to be debated it can simply be handled.

If it doesn't need to be addressed because it's not actually a problem
so much the better.
