Dear Prof. Ian

I'm so sorry for my late reply.
Thank you for your suggestions.

In our draft, we select the recommended pairing-friendly curves that
match two selection policies: "widely-used" and "security (the curves
are shown in peer-reviewed papers)".
If there are a lot of recommended curves in the same draft, we are
afraid that there is a possibility that the draft could confuse the
readers.
So, we limited the number of recommended curves.

I appreciate your interest in our draft!

Best regards,
Yumi
