Help me, I am just not getting it:

Why do you insist on 'fixing STD 66'?

What is the reason you are not willing to reframe the problem to 'fixing how we get from the provided string -the input to the reference construction process- to a STD-66-valid result'?

To me this is really what you are aiming at and dropping the 'fix the URI spec' language would get everyone on board immediately in my perception.
