Fr. There is no traceability between NIPs and code because one group of people controls the NIPs and a different, sometimes overlapping, group of people controls the code.
Just look at the hot mess that is AUTH. If I opened a PR that attempted to fix that, it would never get merged. Everyone arriving new would go with the merged version, quickly realize it doesn't really work well, and then come up with variant #1946, which is incompatible with some of the other variants. And then maybe join me by also submitting a PR. Everyone can submit a PR, hardly anyone can merge, so the specs just rot and the PRs pile up.
