too easy to get DM rights (particularly given the number of people who

public way in which DMs are proposed, giving people the opportunity to
review the DM and react.
Can you explain why you and Christoph think it is too easy to get DM
rights?
No system is going to result in perfect uploads. The goal is to
balance good uploads versus timely uploads. If there has really been
only one controversial upload by a DM, then that seems like a very
good track record in practice. It would be hard to improve on such a
low rate of bad uploads.
