Given that there have been repeated queries to the community for 
technical work items and given that there have been no suggestions that 
have gained any traction, what is the basis for believing there is any 
work on the base spec for a working group to do?

With spfbis and similar efforts, they were started with a knowledge that 
refinements were needed, whereas for the dmarc base spec, we have no 
evidence of that need.  In fact, we have counter-evidence.

Working groups are expensive in time and effort.  They need 
justification before they start, not after.
