Is it worth asking the question about how to bring in a broader swathe of stakeholders such that the standards can be developed that allow for both flexibility and interoperability? For instance, how might we get a selection of new entrants and entrenched players to play together? My personal observations at M3AAWG lead me to believe that this may be a very hard problem, but the IETF seems to do its best work when you have a good mix of operators and developers (made easy when we're in the space of devops ;-)
I feel like this would be overreaching for this spec - these issues deserve separate consideration, and centralisation is just one aspect. I really want to resist this draft becoming a sink for all of the issues that face the Internet (even if many do relate to centralization in some fashion).
Similarly, are there RFC 9170 issues hiding here that also need to be considered when it comes to centralization?
6.5 touches on that lightly, and IIRC I previously had more text around this, but removed it because it didn't seem well-supported (and again, it didn't seem central to the arguments the draft was making).
I'm inclined to close this; if you feel there's more to discuss here say so and I'll reopen.
