I imagined multiple committees working at different paces, resulting in independent amendment proposals working their way through the process at different speeds. I assumed that each would be voted on as they were finalized.

Voting approval and transmission to Congress are two different administrative acts. While amendment proposals could be transmitted to Congress piecemeal, I don’t see that as the usual parliamentary procedure. It might invite a convention to stretch the boundaries of its call and mandate.
