BIPs are Bitcoin Improvement *Proposals*. What you suggest would imply
that someone needs to evaluate them even before they become proposals.
And this raises plenty of notoriously hard to answers questions:
* Who is in charge?
* How to predict if a proposal will be a widespread standard?
* What is the core mission of Bitcoin?
* How to measure if something is for the core mission?
* Who and what is the _entire_ Bitcoin community?
Best,
Tim
