That depends on the sentence.

ARIA is not developed by the HTML Working Group, but I don’t think that 
is important: [1]

“Authors may use the ARIA role and aria-* attributes on HTML elements, 
in accordance with the requirements described in the ARIA 
specifications”

I am just advocating a (IMO) more nuanced view on whether it matter if 
EME is included in the main spec, or not. That’s all.

Hypothetic: With regard to your claim that there would not be agreement 
to include EME in the main spec, perhaps that’s a reason to include it 
- because it then would be turned into something agreeable.
