That's generous of you, but it doesn't really answer my question.

I'm always happy to argue, but W3C lists seem to have a common culture
of "thou shalt not question the motivations of the Working Group." 
People are supposedly trying to get work done there, and I generally
find it wiser to ask rude questions like these on forums with a
fundamentally more open outlook.

I suspect that most of xml-dist-app would prefer that I continue that
policy.
