It seems to me we already have consensus. Everyone who's spoken up
prefers that we ask IANA to register the numbers we've been squatting
on. Some have added that if the numbers get changed, then they can
live with that. I've already asked Hal Murray to submit a PR adding
the requested numbers to the draft, but I'll take it from whomever
submits one first.

This makes the argument over whether EF type codes have any structure
irrelevant because the codes we've been squatting already conform to
the structure that Harlan asserts exists. But the argument is also out
of order in general, because it's already been settled. Last year or
so Harlan sought adoption of a draft laying out this structure. That
draft is now a dead document because the response to the call for
adoption was overwhelming and unanimous in opposition to it.
