This imposes two, formal requirements for Standards Track that are 
dramatically higher barriers than is typical for IETF Standards Track

What is the justification for this deviation from IETF norm?

And, obviously, if it is reasonable here, why is is not universally 
reasonable, as a basic barrier for all specifications going on Standards 
Track?
