It cannot. Because the TB does not sanction anything ever. It just makes recommendations.

I think there's a big difference between making suggestions regarding the overall organization of the board vs. choosing what threads are extraordinary.
It takes a herculean effort just to decide that, for example, Virgin America deserves its own forum. How in the world could a 9-person committee be expected to reach consensus to recommend individual threads in each forum out of the thousands and thousands of threads out there?
I can't think of a way.
But if you have a specific suggestion, I, at least, am all ears!
