Yes, the idea was one group for Gemini, Gopher, and other "small net" approaches. But I guess establishing a new newsgroup might be easier/more welcome than touching one that exists since decades.
Basically the alternative proposal would have been to move/rename c.i.gopher to c.i.small (or any name more suitable).

Are you suggesting a "small net" group as well as a Gemini group, or
instead of a Gemini group ?

merged group for c.i.gopher and c.i.gemini – but lacking a … name
"Small-web" or "small-net" are sometimes used, most often to describe
a combination browser for these protocols.
There's quite a bit of overlap between the communities.
Here a joint newsgroup for Gopher, Gemini, and similar small
infosystems is proposed [...]
Upon creating the group comp.infosystems.small, the existing
comp.infosystems.gopher shall be deleted or merged into
comp.infosystems.small.
CHARTER: comp.infosystems.small
comp.infosystems.small covers information spaces such as hypertext
systems using internet protocols such as gopher, https, gemini as well
as the technology and tools created by its various communities' members.
