What do you mean ? If i join an ISOC chapter, i am not allowed anymore to read RFCs ?

Or have no opinions about what technical words would most likely be desirable
for network engineers in my country (RFC text terms matching other educational material
for example) ? Or whether avoiding specific words isin RFC would be seen as culturally
benefical in my country ?

The IETF community is not the customer (readers of RFCs), even though we are a subset
of it. All i am saying is that if you change the product you should be interested
to understand what the customer thinks. How would you propose to do that ?
