>>OTOH, yes, show the changed section - but be wise with the size of the section, i.e. repeat only as much as is needed for the reader to understand what the change means. Consider Patriot Act, which consists completely (or so I heard) of amends to hundreds of other laws. Imagine yourself as a legislator, voting on a text which changes thousands of pages of law - without seeing the effect your change would make? Not my idea of responsibility. Or, if the delegates are seeing the change and amended text - fine, so the work was already, done, publish it so. So what if it's thousands of pages? This is public, laws are no secret (though I've heard there are exceptions to this as well).

If it isn't under one already, it should be. Then generating articles to publish is something we could write in a few days.

Then it was misattributed or misappropriated a lot. Originally, as I remember it from the seventies, Henry Kissinger.
