Good question.

This document has been through two WGLCs and IETF Last Call, and is now 
in IESG review. It seems somewhat late in the process to be making a 
controversial change like deprecating TLS 1.2 *in this document* given 
that as far as I can see there is no IETF consensus to do so (e.g., such 
a consensus could be established by publishing an RFC that declares TLS 
1.2 to be obsolete, as RFC 8996 did for TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1). IMHO we 
could take this step whenever we publish rfc7525ter (the document that 
obsoletes draft-ietf-uta-rfc7525bis, whenever that happens).
