What I think, and what I've said all along, is that it's reasonable
for the IESG to require updates to the old documents to address modern
concerns, and necessary for the WG to do them.  That may, in some
cases, involve nothing more than explaining why the protocol shouldn't
be changed now, but it's still important to call the issues out.

To strain the "low-hanging fruit" metaphor, I don't think anyone
expects us to rent a cherry-picker, but we might sometimes need to use
a step-stool.
