This may well occur, but, as a datapoint, the cases I have seen (in X3H3) of
"representing oneself" were not folks whose company would not fund their
participation, but folks working as indpendent consultants/contractors, who
were part of no incorporated entity, but had a burning interest in the work
of the committee.  By adding "representing oneself" to the rules, ANSI allowed
these (highly motivated, they paid out of their own pockets) people to add to
the committee's productivity.
