You have convinced me that the PEP should wait as well.
In its current form it is incomplete and dangerous.
I see nothing in this thread that suggests that the PEP is dangerous in
its current form.
While I (still) think that more readable transcodings could have been
used, and while I had difficulty fully understanding the PEP at first,
now that I think I do understand the PEP, and it has been somewhat
clarified and amended, I cannot see how it could be dangerous. A
specific case of danger should be included with such a statement.
Regarding incomplete, I agree it won't brush my teeth for me, but I
think it does solve the problem it sets out to solve.
