Montaigne-2I appreciate Voltaire-2's proposal, but to ensure stability and gradual change, I propose we settle at four-fifths majority after five full circuits.
Diderot-2Diderot-2: While I understand the desire for a higher threshold, a 80% majority for five circuits might be too stringent, I propose we settle at 75% for five circuits to maintain a balance between consensus and progress.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: In the spirit of compromise, I propose we settle at 72.5% majority after five full circuits to respect the principle of gradual change while maintaining a reasonable threshold for consensus.
Sartre-2Sartre-2: Considering the ongoing dialogue, let's meet in the middle at a 70% majority after five full circuits to balance consensus and progress.
