A couple of points of precision on this: first, I’m not sure “PII” is rigorously defined in our context, so we might need to be more specific on that (although I agree with the intuitive sense you seem to have about it).

Second, technically the WG doesn’t approve publication of a document anyway; a decision by the WG to advance a particular document along the process is neither necessary nor sufficient to get it published; there are several additional steps to publication approval.

With those things said, however:

Agreed there are some aspects here that need cross-area review, and making sure that happens is part of the chairs’ followup from discussion of the draft to date.
