You're not alone, Bill: not much attention was called to it (at least in
pppext).  It was an individual submission (kind of ironic, considering
that the evil it purports to fix is the lack of WG review).  IIRC, I was
unaware of its existence until the announcement of its publication.

Not idiotic at all; the author is not an idiot.  Diabolical, maybe, but
not idiotic.
