If that's the case, great. We have never done a measurement.

The whole section? The whole paragraph? Or just the sentence "This method is controversial with some members of the IETF community because drafts were originally designed to be impossible to access six months after publication, and wording based on the assumption of that inaccessibility still appears automatically in current Internet Drafts."?
