Less likely. Next step after public review is to gather comments from
public review.
If something is really pressing and needs to be addressed, then yes
this will change.
Else this gets ratified as it is.

If the commit sha can change, then it is useless. What's the guarantee
someone is going to remember to update it if it changes?

Sorry for late reply.

I was following existing wordings and patterns for messaging in this file.
You would rather have me remove sha and only mention that spec is in public
review?
