Until you have a concrete suggestion, you're derailing the discussion.
Enrico and a number of people sound like they would like a way forward
that works for people trying to become DMs today.
When I hear things like "eventually have a GR," that's on an entirely
different scope than they are asking about.
It's possible no short-term solutions will emerge.
And I don't mind people exploring longer-term things.
What I mind a great deal is our tendency to suck every discussion into
such a long-term thing that it immobilizes us.
You are adding stop energy: you've broadened the scope to a question
that you then say you cannot answer.
Sometimes that is necessary; some ideas need to be stopped.
I disagree that processing DMs today is such an idea.
