Were drafts not archived by the IETF, I would agree, but they are, so they remain useful.

Further, it isn’t “dead”; it hasn’t changed. I no longer perform in-place updates when there are no changes.

I discussed how to move it forward with the chairs in July 2020. Based on that discussion the deadline was moved to Nov 2022, largely due to my limited cycles for concurrent drafts, focusing on 2140bis first.

Regardless, it remains a comprehensive description of the issues.
