Why is this discussed in Team-only space and not on spec-prod? It seems fair

At time the Team chooses to work out differences internally first, then come
forward with a position. This is one of those times. And we've been slowed down
by vacations.
We do not really have to discuss this further I suppose (it is as it is), but I think
this is as problematic as Working Groups making "formal" comments on each
other's work, which in practice is usually a comment-by-proxy from a couple of people in
the Working Group trying to make their point seem overly important. In fact it might be
slightly worse, as by having your discussion Team-only we get no insight in how you
arrived at your position.
I would expect us to provide rationale for a decision. Is this what you expect?
Or fleshed out discussion?
Like Anne, I would expect that the people doing the actual work would
have an opportunity to directly participate.
