I agree with the suggested edit; based on the faq[1] released by NTIA it
does seem there is going to be another process that will handle the RZM,
which makes it quite unclear whether that is also a task of the CWG (not
even at ICG level). I quote the relevant section below:

One may need to clarify from the ICG how it intends to handle the RZM in
relation to their scope of work.
