The process of revising without notifying you should not have happened.

I don't know if this was Michael's motivation, but a reason for
including the text is that on one of the prior occasions in which a
request for a tag for Latin American Spanish was discussed there were
requests for information to be added to the form providing
implementation guidance. Given those past requests, I think additions
along that line are reasonable. But you should have been informed.

That sentence wasn't intended to imply anything about what is actually
presented in a UI. It is the *option* corresponding to that tag that is
presented; *how* in a UI it is presented is a separate issue.
