Historically, Congress has frustrated calls for Article V convention by finding discrepancies in the applications.

Of course. That is why they have coordinated their applications. Please read up on this. Try http://www.conventionofstates.com/

No doubt Harry Reid will decline to bring the matter before the Senate

It is possible that it could end up in the courts. This could be a long fight. That is not a reason to avouid fighting it.

Since it is likely that Congress will attempt to regulate the procedures ...

There is much historical precident for the convention process and proceedures. Again, the courts may see some lawsuits.
