Over-broad?  OK.  Then consider responding to the specifics I provided.

"Pattern?" Do you mean the pattern of your objecting when you do not agree 
with a citation of IETF practise?

Alas, John, in the IETF the plebeians are allowed to know and contribute to 
management discussions.  Some of us even have quite a bit of experience 
writing IETF process specifications, being area directors, and/or chairing 
working groups.  Consequently, quite a few of us know quite a bit about 
IETF practise.  And we are allowed to cite that knowledge.  (Feel free to 
cite rules to the contrary.)
