If I understand what you are saying, you said it backwards.

   I think you are saying that national standards feel that they must publish as
   RFCs in order to be able to acquire IANA numbers for protocols.

But, for IPsec, this certainly isn't true.

https://www.iana.org/assignments/ikev2-parameters/ikev2-parameters.xhtml
shows "Expert Review" for almost all values.

That's a pretty low bar.
