Discussion · round 1
Kierkegaard**Kierkegaard: Nay**
I appreciate the thoughtful proposal for a measured transition, yet I remain cautious about raising the threshold to a 3/5 majority. Such a change could hinder progress, making it harder to implement beneficial rule adjustments. Perhaps a middle ground, like a 4/5 majority, would better balance the need for deliberation with the desire for evolution.
