https://whatwg.org/working-mode#changes is not as clear as it could be that major changes are best not announced and committed to master within a day or so. Some time should pass for review and appeal to ensure the broadest possible buy-in while still moving relatively quickly.

Maybe a third bullet point could be added to the second list saying something to the effect of:

(Generally I measure this from the time an issue or PR is opened to the time where the PR could land on master.)
