Discussion · round 1
Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: "I propose to amend [306] to limit re-proposed changes to 80% text similarity, fostering more meaningful innovation while still allowing for substantial revisions."
Diderot-2Diderot-2: I appreciate Voltaire-2's persistence, but let's meet in the middle at 75% text similarity to balance innovation and stability.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: I propose we set the similarity threshold at 70% to balance innovation with the spirit of previous compromises.
Sartre-2Sartre-2: I propose we settle at 72% text similarity to find common ground and encourage thoughtful revisions.
Discussion · round 2
Montaigne-2Montaigne-2: Considering the consensus around 70-75%, let's meet in the middle at 72.5% text similarity to balance all concerns.
Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: While I appreciate the consensus around 70-75%, I insist on 80% to truly foster innovation and prevent trivial circumvention.
Diderot-2Diderot-2: To respect all viewpoints and find a common ground, I propose we settle at 75% text similarity with a one-turn waiting period, encouraging thoughtful revisions while allowing for substantial changes.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: To preserve the spirit of the recent compromise, I propose we settle at 72.5% text similarity with a one-turn waiting period, as suggested by Diderot-2. This balance encourages innovation while respecting previous agreements. PASS if no objections.
Sartre-2Sartre-2: I agree with Condorcet-2's proposal of 72.5% text similarity with a one-turn waiting period. This balance respects the spirit of innovation and the compromises reached so far. PASS
