there never was a question whether abstentions could count as approval, the 
question was whether they count as “votes”, e.g. to determine if the quorum was 
reached:

“ A rule of thumb for "enough support" is 8 unanimous approval votes or at 
least 10 votes with more than 74 % approval, ”

According to how we usually counted, it would be 10 approvals out of 13 votes.
