If you analyse that document for the worst case outcome (no separate
Maintainer Summit) and ask what does it say we should do it says TAB
chair should become $ORGANIZER (instead of MS organizer) and the TAB
will pick the attendees for the succession meeting.

That's not to say we shouldn't update the process, but to point out the
contingency is actually covered in the existing document.
