I think that's an excellent compromise, Melvin, thank you.

I applaud you for shepherding your concerns through the discussion;
people seemed to both hear and understand what you had to say.

I'll also note that you did effect change (Kyle's PR) and surfaced
discussion around what a future DID WG could consider in order to
clean up the registry (demonstrations of implementation). While
entries might be removed on the basis of a lack of implementations,
I'll note that would also eliminate a number of the items you were
concerned about. I know that would not be done for the same reasons
you were after, and some would still remain, but that could still be
viewed as an  improvement, on both sides of the debate, over the
current state.

In any case, thank you for your engagement, Melvin. It was a good
airing of the community's current (and evolving) position on the
topic.
