Thanks for the comment! It looks like the proposed rule is narrowly focused on peanuts. Where is the allergy data from in your post? Is it misguided for the FAA to only address peanut allergies or what’s your position?

While a peanut allergy is a huge issue, what about other allergies? 10% of the population is allergic to perfumes yet this is not mentioned here. Airlines are filled with perfumes and international flights sell it duty free. Personal air purifiers are not allowed so it leaves 10% of the population unable to fly or risk anaphylaxis on every flight.
What good will notifying a person of a delayed or cancelled flight be if the airline is not required to rebook the person? After being stranded in Mexico with the US airline refusing to rebook due to me having a discounted ticket, I feel this rule falls way too short. Make the airlines tell you about cancelled/ delayed flights and force them to rebook you on another flight or, if the delay will be greater than 24 hours, force them to rebook you with another carrier.
