It's not too surprising: it's the same reason why the ES6 spec was just
published *on paper*, with the html version being explicitly flagged as
non-normative.

For standards work, having a reliable substrate is important.  It is not
the TC's job to innovate on or experiment with collaboration platforms.

Which isn't too say that much good work can't be done by an enthusiastic
community on <name your platform>.  Just that, at the end of the day, it
will be boiled down first to email, for broad distribution, then to
face-to-face communication along TC members, then finally published on
paper.
