That is almost never an appropriate goal for an IETF working group
creating a standard.  The goal of a standard-setting working group is
to understand and describe what will work well for the Internet as a
whole and to vett that design via wide review, not to rubber-stamp what
has been designed by a small group of people and deployed under
relatively limited circumstances.

that's IESG's job.
