No.

This interpretation of the working group process is flawed. This is not
all how IETF works.

If we consider "no matter how minor" as just changing the version number
of a draft, we should all be able to see that the act of merely bumping
the version number of a draft absolutely is not an adequate
implementation of "addressing outstanding issues".

Concerns are addressed through dialogue and substantial change to an
Internet Draft.

Conceding when there is a real outstanding technical objection is not
coming to consensus.

The misuse of process has been brought up before
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ipv6/GAIeuDbH3q1u9YQvQLHYaYK4sXU
It gives me great cause for alarm to observe these proceedings.

Kind regards,

Job
