Re: [whatwg/url] Rephrase the stated goal of obsoleting RFC 3986 and RFC 3987 (Issue #703)

I think those who contributed to the RFCs are also mentioned in https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#acknowledgments. Not sure what makes you say they are not.

As for things the RFCs provide that this document does not, most of those are intentional design decisions. And we typically don't document those in the standards. If some concrete need for any of those can be shown that's open for reconsideration of course, but thus far that bar hasn't quite been met.

And to be clear, I somewhat regularly interact with the IETF community and many there can appreciate the situation for what it is. I would not say the WHATWG is on bad terms.
