In at least one reading, it could be said that this draft is trying to push
against that market perception by re-lowering the bar for PS, contrary to
the market reality.  I occasionally find a little windmill tilting
refreshing, but I'm confused, Brian, as to why you both want the IESG
congratulated for adapting to that reality and simultaneously wants them to
adopt this.

But possibly a hobgoblin is preying on my little mind, despite my being
neither statesman, nor philosopher, nor divine.
