Thinking about it some more, I want to re-ask the question as it were:

Mike wrote:

confirming bodies have an ability to say something about the job
descriptions.

I guess I was hung up on "say something" and took it to mean revise/modify/edit, etc.

Sure, NomCom and the confirming bodies can interpret the job description and fill it how they want. But if they decide to *change the wording* or *disregard the input* I would expect the IESG liaison and the IAB confirming body would raise issues, unless they agreed with NomCom's interpretation.  Yes, the general IETF community can provide feedback that says "the job description is wrong, we don't need an AD DogCatcher we need an AD CatCatcher" Presumably they might do that earlier, when the job descriptions are posted, rather than later. But I don't see the IETF community ever really doing that in enough force that NomCom would say "you're right, we'll look for a good CatCatcher."
