On the contrary, if every one objected formally all the time
we shall never resolve anything. The moethod right now talks about,
if there was no consensus, to call for a supermajority vote of
75%. Under you model of doing thnigs, votes shall never be required
-- either everyone agrees, or if 4 people do not like vene one part
of the proposal, it dies.
I think that is unacceptable.
I think we do need to exercise restraint in formal
objections. If you are so sure that you are right, it should not be
hard to convinve the others of your views. If you can't, then may be
you are indeed the one whoi is ``wrong''.
I think that the current attitude of intellectual intolerance
(I *must be right, and everyone else is obvioulsy wrong) would make
the policy list ineffective.
