Not all charters need a motivation and background section, especially if this is a charter for an exciting group.

Relates to #355

As historical context, on 10 February 2023, this section title was changed from "Background" to "Motivation and Background" and the word "brief" was removed. This appears to have been done as a commit, not a PR.

Some of the discussion behind this can be found in
#383.

In #383 (comment), I said "Since this was merged(sic) while I was away, I won't reopen - maybe there was a consensus (e.g. on a call) not reflected in this issue, but I will be pushing back in individual cases."

Looking more at the history, I'm thinking the change in fc3234f did, in fact, not have consensus.

I concur. This should be optional. Seems like a well defined and clear mission and scope would have a lot of overlap with this section.
