This doesn't have to be a rule, just an intention.

The IAB's plan is to put that intention into its internal policies,
instead, on the grounds that it will be obvious to any competent IAB
that complete turnover is undesirable without tying a future IAB's
hands if something dramatic happens.  Is it enough that you know that?


Andrew,

While I suspect that what you describe is sufficient in practical terms, operationally, there is nonetheless such a long-established practice of including this bit of procedural requirement into a foundational document like this that it seems quite odd not to have it. There.
