The missing piece of the puzzle here may be that there are external 
groups who work on call spam abatement. See, in particular, the SHAKEN 
solution developed by ATIS on top of the STIR work. So there is a high 
chance that this document will serve as useful input to concrete 
external efforts. Publishing it as an RFC makes it more reasonably 
citable by such external entities.
