I think this is a bit well, sad, at the moment-- a basic principle in sound decision making is that one should try to withhold judgement until after the analysis and options are laid out to avoid prematurely laying down "battle lines" which then they're socially and politically committed to a particular answer. There are several other BIPs in the works right now that aren't out there yet, as well (as presumably) new insight from the workshop. It would be a shame if these things would be for naught because of being decided prematurely.
