Perhaps we should ask the IETF of their experience when they tried updating
their SLA (which was somewhat the outcome of the IANAPLAN) during the
transition.

I had thought Paul's team passed the level of agreeing on the SLE
requirements with IANA no?

If I may, what does testing imply? does testing in this case mean working
on the live system or creating a dummy setup or doing similar hypothetical
test case scenario like it was done within the CCWG?
