Can WCAG add caption standards, so they arereadable, usable, and benefit the people they are intended to assist?

WCAG recommends captions, but fails to include standards. Captions need standards (https://janicelintz.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/multichannelviewpt-72913.pdf) to be readable, usable, and benefit the people they are intended to assist. Can w3c/wcag3 add captioning standards?

I recommend the standards that the Association of National Advertisers recommends(https://janicelintz.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/ana_closedcaption_whitepaper-f.pdf) These standards are the basis for the FCC standards (https://www.fcc.gov/sites/default/files/closed_captioning_on_television.pdf) and the NPS captioning standards (https://janicelintz.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/19-10-npsguidelines.pdf).

I would also like to be added to the committee.
