... and yet, the select few who were in that room are not the WG, which 
is why I asked. :)

I would hate for even a significant minority opinion to get bulldozed 
here because "We decided this in HI." OTOH, if the consensus of the 
entire WG is truly to create this new hybrid thing, I won't object too 
loudly. I think it's a mistake of course ...

As a process step that gives an air of finality to the decision that I 
don't think is fair. "We decided this in HI, now we're having a WGLC, 
you agree, right?" Given that AFAICS the consensus was pretty strong to 
chuck the whole thing going into HI, it's not clear to me what changed, 
or why it changed, or even that the majority of the WG agrees with the 
new plan. Not having any of that discussion until WGLC feels like 
stacking the deck to me, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong on that.
