I just wrote up a draft based on this concept, but it's got a rather trivial "strategy", which makes the whole draft pointless. If A has a supermajority requirement, introduce option B which does not have a supermajority requirement but does meet quorum. By comparison, the strategy you proposed for supermajority scaling is almost useless. I'm going to rewrite using scaling, since that seems to be the best compromise for stability. -- Raul
