I suppose it depends on how one defines "success".    For example, you 
may make other choices, but personally I'm inclined to lock my car doors 
when I park it, and take the keys with me, no matter how much I might 
benefit from the perspective of a stranger encroaching on my car.

More to the point, I really think we need to be careful to pick future 
RSEs who won't try to impose their own agenda on IETF.    I think we've 
been very lucky so far but should not rely on being lucky in the future.
