Do note that 2026's definition of AS is broader than what we usually 
call "applicability statements". It includes conformance documents, 
protocol profiles, and implementation instructions. There are actually 
plenty of those sorts of documents that are published as BCP that never 
use the words "applicability statement" in their title. And it's 
actually those kinds of documents that I'm most interested in getting on 
the standards track.
