What should the editors do if the choice is between talking ever so slightly (but, not easily fixed) over-the-heads of a heck of a lot of extremely talented yet slightly junior people in the Scheme community, and, instead, trying to let those others (the talented majority who an older generation is very proud to have contributed to) lead the direction of the standard while trying to prevent any disaster?
And, how can one even begin to characterize the risks of either path? Ugh. The externalities suck, since they dominate the survival potential of Scheme without much sensitivity to these concerns. And to think ... basically, it's all just applied math.
