:::Perhaps so, but we don't even need IAR for this case -- occasional exceptions are already written into the "rules". The heading of [[WP:N]] says: {{tqqi|This page documents an English Wikipedia notability guideline.

Thus the purpose is served, and there can be an exception to the letter of the usual GNG standard.
