>The original research papers around that work were published using RISC-V architecture, just because it was the only architecture that was open

I was thinking that Mips and Power are "open" too, no?

Do mips and power accept changes/extensions suggestions?

Does RISC-V accept changes to ratified specs beyond clarifications of existing intent?

The open-sourced toolchain of RISC-V accepts any kind of extensions as long as they are in the reserved code space, basically out-of-the-box. The current ratifying body does not hold any special toolchain or legal influence other than its publicity, thus irrelevant in this comparison.
