In general, yes.  However, in this case more is perhaps at stake
than documenting existing practice.  Whether we like it or not,
publication of said existing practice by the IETF will be seen as
an endorsement of that practice.  And, while the present RPZ provides
useful operational controls, there is real potential for mandated
abuse or collateral damage.

Therefore, yes, really, it may be best to not document current
practice, and instead create a document that reduces the potential
for abuse and/or collateral damage.

If we're sending rockets up, we should care where they come down.
