If, as has been suggested, 4627bis were to normatively reference ECMA-404,

Then, the suitability of ECMA-404, and errors and lacunae of it, should
be discussed *here*. The only reason pushing to TC39 any
discussions of IETF participants' difficulties would be if there
were an explicit plan to update ECMA-404 and make 4627bis
normatively reference that update.
