Indeed. However IMO the question of what hats Francisco (or anyone else) might 
or might not be wearing does not matter to the consensus view/determination of 
the WG and its co-chairs.

The usual working definition of consensus is lack of sustained reasonable 
objection. Francisco has objected but AFAICT has not found support in the WG 
for his position. The WG should note his objection and proceed.

FWIW RFC7282 says "Rough consensus is achieved when all issues are addressed, 
but not
necessarily accommodated". I think in this case that rough consensus has been 
reached. All the issues seem to have been addressed even if the above objection 
has not been accommodated.

+1.

IMO there's a consensus for that view in the WG. So let's get this out the door 
and move on.

Lyman's instinct to favour operational stability is prudent. I support that PoV.
