We cannot > simply weigh the latest opinions more than all the discussions that have > happened as part of the WG consensus. At one level I agree. But suppose that the set of people who are active in the SXFG7M WG are so focused on the sxfg7m protocol that they have all missed the fact that it's extremely damaging to normal operations of the m7gfxs protocol? And this includes the responsible AD, who has no deep knowledge of m7gfxs? This is the sort of problem that IETF Last Call and IESG review is intended to find, and it may well mean that the WG consensus ends up being irrelevant to the IETF non-consensus. (I'm not in the least suggesting that this applies to the draft that led to the appeal that led to this thread.) My conclusion, again, is that in the end this is the sort of judgment call that we *expect* the IESG to make. And when we feel they've misjudged, we appeal, and that tunes their judgment for the future.
