Following the official rules would mean making all the GitHub repos
private. Making all reflectors private (not all of them are private, and
contain people who are no longer ISO members). It would mean forbidding
authors from authoring any of their work in their own public GitHub repos.
It would mean forbidding authors from talking about P papers in
conferences. It would mean members not being able to talk to coworkers if
their employer is not an ISO member. It would mean removing wg21.link. And
so on. Imagining working under those conditions is a brain hurting exercise.
