Voting to achieve what?

Fair decisions in a simpler, effective and right manner (and not
discutable, ideally).

I do not consider "fairness", whatever that could mean, having anything to do with technical decisions regarding PHP, neither I think counting votes is the process that allows to arrive to a decision best for PHP. I personally know very little about some areas of PHP code, and it make little sense that my vote would carry the same weight as opinion of the person that wrote and maintains the code. There's nothing in arithmetic majority of people that makes any decision better, more effective, more right and not disputable. Thousands of people can be wrong as easy as one person can be, and one person can be as right as a thousand.

Also, vast majority of PHP users never read this list and would know nothing of any votes held or announced here, so representing that as a poll reflecting opinion of a millions-wide PHP community makes no sense whatsoever.
