> What is the constitutional basis for you thinking this? If the developers could change this fundation document by the very same way, and they explicitly only do an override for a specific situation instead of putting more text into this fundation document, why shouldn't this be allowed? (Or perhaps view it just as a very implicit change to the fundation document. Our constitution does not disallow this.)
