Agreed.

More generally, there would be little point in traveling were all
interactions handicapped to the degree that would be required for full
remote participant equity. The IETF should provide reasonable accommodation
for remote attendees (which IMO includes things like the new local/remote
mic queue discipline) but accept that there is value in *being there* that
cannot be replicated by remote attendees via any near-term telepresence
technology.

Moreover, the IETF should not apologize for wanting to maximize the
benefits of the reality we inhabit. These are constraints not under our
control.
