Totally agree with the concept of needing to know why we’re here, but I saw #3 slightly differently. A charter will define a broad scope and include a definition of the broad problem set. I’m taking a crack at that broad "Mission, Purpose and Need” in the draft Charter I’m taking first draft on.

What we’ll need at stage 3 is a deep dive into the scope of the issue - it’s various components and stakeholders. I think that’s a distinctly different project and worthy of its own point. 

So ultimately I agree, but think we can cover "Mission, Purpose and Need” sufficiently in the draft Charter to get by.
