Ahoy,

I know there isn't a weak-only proposal. Albert had previously
suggested that a single proposal (the dual-mode one) should have a
3-way vote to pick default behaviour, instead of a simple yes/no on
the whole proposal. In the spirit of game theory, this feels like a
way to get people to vote for something they don't want (all votes for
strict by default actually count as a vote for weak by default, which
we know would take the majority).

If that's not what he was referring to here, then I apologise, my mistake.

Leigh.
