Well, I guess the counterpoint is that section "5. Recommended Behavior"
suffers from all of the issues outlined in that 2020 IETF LLC statement.*
The IETF LLC had the same counsel at the time, btw.

- Summaries oversimplify, and grow outdated.
- Bright line dos/don’ts miss important nuance.
- Mechanical recitals become ‘white noise.’

By refraining from guiding behavior around a 6 point bulleted list, my
edits make it clear that such summaries do little to "protect" participants
or the IETF. I mean, it seems like I'm the only person that has ever read
the existing slides thoroughly enough to notice that they are buggy.

There are plenty of other sections in the draft that seem fine, and I have
no objection to the draft appearing linked from the "Note Well" page in
general.

thanks,
Rob
