Then we either introduce that notion, or we reject this proposal.

Instead of claiming that the discussion is extended then simply say that
it is frozen. Why try to lie about it by calling it differently?

Then simply FREEZE this current one. Marking it as 'under discussion' is
useless as there can't be any discussion about something which is not
decided on.

Most people will actually agree with the simple thing that the RIR's
should not do anything that the IETF does not want them to do yet.

One does not have to take the wordings that literal. Laws are also
applied on a per-case basis, as the PDP is sort of a 'law book' in your
eyes, consider this one also on this per-case basis.
