This is true, and the remedy exists as well.  It's worth pointing out that "please review" doesn't mean "please redesign this."   It means "please point out technical flaws that you see."   None of what you or Nick has said sound like technical flaws to me—they sound like "I would prefer to do it this other way."

The working group considered doing it that other way and decided that on the balance, the way it's written now is better.   So unless there is some strong technical reason why it _shouldn't_ be done the way the working group has proposed, there's no basis for making a change.   It's issues like that that we are looking for in a v6ops review.
