In other words, you do not have either the time, motivation,
and arguments to convince fellow developers that your idea has
merit. I don't know how to avoid that, unless you think we should let
any changes at all into policy, even when the proposer has not
offered any convincing rationale for the change. Would the resulting
policy documentation have any utility whatsoever?
