Agreed.

At one point we considered just doing "TLS 1.2 the editorial fix-up" edition.  Someone could still do that.  Codifying existing practice, pulling in widely supported extensions and cipher suites, etc.  But it will probably be a lot of work for very little gain.  (Compared to say the HTTP/1.1 great rewriting....)
