In my understanding, the others argue that being less flexible is a benefit.

I cannot judge who's right. My point is, an attempt should be made to 
negotiate, rather than insisting on one approach being better. It 
doesn't seem that important.

For example, if the GnuPG developers said, that this detail is really 
important to them, and that it is the only remaining disagreement 
regarding the use of PQC with v4 primary keys, then the GnuPG developers 
could reach out of the others, and suggest to change this detail in 
order to reach a common specification.

That's what I suggest to do.

Thanks,
