On the other hand, is it good for a standards organization to leave

I think not, real question is do we want implicit or explicit standards? I
vote for explicit
No, the real question is, "how do we want the spend the time and
energy in the IETF?", in other words, is this obvious enough that
making explicit guidance isn't worth our time (as there is probably a

doing).
