<!--
  This issue is the cheap, informal stage. Nothing here is binding and
  nothing here is voted on. When the wording stabilizes, open a PR with a
  proposal file (see docs/pipeline.md) and link this issue from it.
-->

## What rule is broken, missing, or ambiguous?

<!-- Describe the concrete coordination failure, not just the abstract principle. -->

## Proposed direction

<!-- Rough wording or parameters. Doesn't need to be final. -->

## Expected change class

<!-- Your guess: kernel-major / kernel-minor / userland-major / userland-minor / patch.
     See docs/semver.md. The classifier has the final word once a PR exists. -->

## Who is worst-off under the current text? Under the proposed text?

<!-- The empathy metric applies to amendments too. Name the participant the
     current rules fail, and check the proposal doesn't just move the failure
     onto someone else. -->
