Yes mam, this is indeed the key strategic implication from the IRP. In my own view however, ALAC [re]action may be premature for objective. 

Recent developments, especially this empowered community model, has already undermined the "GAC advises, Board follows" scheme. I see this IRP decision as adding grist to the mill in any downstream federal court action. If and when a federal district court makes that pronouncement, then stick a fork in it. It is roasted.

But to me, far more important in the long term is the very clear rejection of "the GAC advises, the Board follows" model. The ruling has chipped away at the power of the GAC "advice" , and may change the dynamic of the stakeholder roles in ICANN.
Might this be an opportunity for At-Large to work towards balancing the roles of the ACs? Given that the relationship with the Board is different for the various ACs, based on the bye-laws.
