Why?  How does this help the "good guys" (define that as you wish)?

I'm seeing how it really helps governments cheaply create and enforce
the creation of national internets -- especially with the walled garden
features.  Are those the good guys to you, or are there other benefits?

I'm also seeing how, if hijacked, the walled garden feature makes it
trivial to distribute malware to large numbers of users.

If this is being submitted to the WG, this document will already be
under IETF & WG change control.  If that's not the intent, then the
document should not be adopted.
