That mostly works for me. What I've tried to do is give some of the
ones that I see some but not an overwhelming consensus a "provisional"
status in the draft. I think that in order to advance we probably should
take each one of them and determine whether there is *real* consensus
with a real constiency lest it gets removed in the final version.

But yes, less is better here.
