Strictly speaking the draft was never formally submitted via IANA. 
Rather I was giving David advise on how I would rule if he submitted the draft. 

As expert I do not have any formal guidelines to tell me how to judge 
options. My rule after implementing ClientSubnet is “never again” allow complex 
type. 
So I told David et. al. that the type requested had 4 sub-types one already 
allocated,
so stop sub-typing and ask for 3 extra types.

I did not judge anything about the privacy issues that those 4 types may have, 
as 
that is not in scope.
It is up to the working group to give advice to either editor or expert to 
change
approach.

As Expert I do not want to write the rules for myself :-) 
I will be happy to comment on any suggested rules/advise.
