It could indeed but I note, fwiw, that there has already been an
executive decision by the relevant AD that documents are not to
make changes that exceed the (narrowly-interpreted) scope of the
WG Charter.

I assume that ruling will not be different for different
documents, lest the WG be called upon to describe and document
the hair-splitting or to risk having several documents tied up
in appeals over the perceived inconsistency.
