Could you please clarify your request?  That's not a complete sentence
and doesn't explain what reasons you are asking us to think of.

If you are asking for reasons that creating such a standard would not be
a good idea, I would say it makes me nervous that below you seem to be
looking to create a stick to smack LoCos with:

Since no one seems to have agreed on an "action plan" yet, but you're
already pushing to create a standard that will be actively enforced
against LoCos, I'm concerned that we might end up with a policy that
doesn't necessarily make sense for all LoCos.

It's already important for LoCos to foster and encourage local advocacy
and participation.  I'd prefer to continue developing good documentation
that helps make this easier rather than creating requirements that would
probably be unnecessary if documentation were there.
