I for one make no such presumption. But we have never made that claim. The claim we've made is that we know how to make *our* protocols secure against inspection or forgery by 3rd parties, and that it's our job to do so.

When we try to go wider than that, we fail. I am not very sympathetic to "a true multi-stakeholder consultation process as suggested by the IAB’s RFC 8890". The IETF is not in any way a suitable vehicle for that kind of process, as anyway who remembers WGIG/WSIS is well aware.
