> You cannot just change the status from “informational” to “standards track”. They are very different things. Informational is just general information, while standards track means IETF consensus and recommendation. Changing the status would (I assume) require wg consensus and then redoing the last calls.

Note that since RFC 8789, IETF Consensus is required even for Informational
documents (on the IETF stream).  (ISE- and IRTF-stream Informational
documents, of course, have no requirement for IETF Consensus.)
