Furthermore, the initial limited subtask would be much more difficult
to evaluate as a strategy without a working prototype, including by
the Bot Approvals Group which demands working code before making a
final decision on implementation. Trying to second guess the BAG is
presumptuous.

Im not saying you need formal approval from BAG approval before you begin.
Im saying you should have an informal discussion on VP or somewhere to make
sure that relavent stakeholders think the idea would potentially be useful
in principle.
Six years is a long time, people change, things change, especially for a
proposal that while didnt garner a lot of opposisition, didnt garner people
jumping up and down in support either.
