Hadn't looked at like that but you are probably correct about it being within the picket fence.

However, I thought that the only way that something could become a Consensus Policy was by going through the formal PDP process. Cases such as this are exactly why I have been pushing for a "fast-path" PDP where all parties seem to be in agreement at the start, but to date, there is no such process on the books.

Maybe this is the case that makes us re-think that.

Actually, while not definitive, IMO they appear to fall within 4.2.1 and
possibly 4.2.6 and 4.2.8 of the RAA (section 4.2 defines the so-called
picket fence.) So I believe we see these as becoming consensus policy as
defined in section 4 of the RAA and would be binding on all registrars
if Council approves with a supermajority and Board approves as well.
