This is the wrong way to look at it.
The right way to look at it is this: exercising this "override" this
must be achieved by using options which constitutionally require only
a 1:1 majority.
Helpfully, 4.1.5 permits this.
How about this:
If the project passes by a General Resolution, a "position statement
about issues of the day", on the subject of init systems, the views
expressed in that position statement entirely replace the substance
of this TC resolution; the TC hereby adopts any such position
statement as its own decision.
Such a position statement could, for example, use these words:
The Project requests that the TC reconsider, and requests that
the TC would instead decide as follows:
