No, vetoes are not a way to achieve this. Quite the opposite, in fact.

Vetoes are weapons. Weapons for diplomacy, but weapons nonetheless. We do
not want weapons in the project.

Contributors should heed objections to their proposal because it is the
correct, polite thing to do. If we can not be polite to each other most of
the time, then the project is doomed, vetoes will not help.

To say it another way: if we work well together, we do not need vetoes, if
we do not work well together, vetoes would make it worse.
