How about: Anything that we can't agree is either absolutely necessary or a
fundamental operation of an ADT goes into a child package for the ADT. For
example, one might imagine an operation that returned a list consisting of
only the odd elements of the input list. It might be useful in some
settings, but certainly isn't fundamental to the notion of what a list is.
Hence, defer it to a child package. That ought to help keep us focused and
probably won't result in too much disagreement. When in doubt, it goes in a
child package so the advocates have not lost the feature and the detractors
don't need to be burdened with it if they don't want it.
