Dear Dave,
thanks for the comment. Now I will try to guess who is the author of
this brilliant idea.
Essentially, this is probably good for the many experimental modulation
types that periodically appear and immediately die as unclaimed.
But for the type of FT4, which is preparing to become a major in amateur
radio communications, this is absolutely unacceptable. It will be
correct to re-vote back while there is still time. This will be a wise
decision.

The ADIF committee apparently thinks all software is easy to change and should
do so to match their intentions.
+ An interchange specification is by definition dynamic. New digital modes are a common
occurrence - a trend we should welcome and encourage. SUBMODE was added to the ADIF
specification 6 years ago. If an application can't "keep up" with simple
extensions like SUBMODE, either it's poorly structured, or its developer is incompetent.
We unsuccessfully fought this idea so you'll just have to live with what
they've done.
+ The vote on 2019-05-21 to approve ADIF 3.1.0 -- which defines FT4 as
<MODE:4>MFSK SUBMODE:3>FT4 -- was unanimous, as shown in this announcement:
