While I wouldn’t consider it an editorial change, I would consider it a minor change, which, if it had good community discussion and support at the meeting, would, IMHO, be within the scope of pre-last-call changes that could be made between the PPM and last call.

The AC has, as has been mentioned before, significant discretion in determining what is a “minor change”.

This is strictly my own opinion and may or may not be shared by other AC members, staff, or anyone else.
