You cannot easily lighten another's load without their wanting it,
though.

*All* steering committees are empowered to pass on "responsibility of
decision making" to a smaller group.  If FESCo is feeling too heavy with
discussions and decisions, it can easily choose to empower a few
members, a SIG, etc. to make a decision.  FESCo retains the
"accountability of the decision", and takes that to FPB, who are the
group accountable to (in order) the Community, the Contributors, and the
Sponsors.
