We’ve listened to Bryan Lunduke’s idea.
However, it isn’t applicable. W3C as a Member Consortium, can no more force Members to join its working groups that it can forbids its Members to.

Anyone can become a W3C Member by submitting an application and paying a Membership fee.

As further information on how decisions are made at W3C, while most of the W3C work is conducted in public and while public feedback is taken into account along the life of each specification, only W3C Members take decisions (by voting).

Kind regards,
Coralie
