I see the intention here. My initial thought is that the constitution already enables overriding by replacing the secretary through §4.1.7, assuming the project leader and secretary disagree. [§4.1.1 (recalling the DPL) could be employed if they agree.] If we add this, the intersection of §4.1.8 and §4.1.7 should be addressed when it comes to questions requiring a supermajority. -- Don Armstrong https://www.donarmstrong.com No matter how many instances of white swans we may have observed, this does not justify the conclusion that all swans are white. -- Sir Karl Popper _Logic of Scientific Discovery_
