I shall probably regret this but my opinion is a firm Not Ready.

You are asking IANA to do what seems like an awful lot of work and
making it more work than I think you have reason to do so IMHO e.g.

You are asking for urn: registrations but do not follow the procedure
for registering a new urn:

You are asking for new somethings but do not use the terminology of
RFC8126

In Initial Registry, your IANA Considerations say
   IANA is requested to populate The Performance Metric Registry defined
   in [I-D.ietf-ippm-metric-registry] with the values defined above.
which seems to be asking IANA to trawl through some 78 pages to find
some 24 references to IANA and try to understand what is being asked of
them,
while not using a template as is the custom.

If I was IANA, I would say, 'On your bike'; but knowing how IANA love
rising to a challenge, they may well take it on - but if they do, I
expect
that the quality will suffer just because they are being asked
to do so much
