That's likely outcome and it's likely that it would be LangCom's
suggestion (but, cf. Gerard's comment about priorities), but LangCom
doesn't have legitimacy to decide against the will of 100% of one
community if it's not about pure technical or linguistic issues. The
issue is clearly of political nature and LangCom is not the body which
solves such problems.
