I agree with this. We could end up with a different system if we look at this holistically. Also, I'm not sure what the urgency in making this change is. I'd rather be thoughtful about a substantive change like this. It might help to articulate the goals of the voting system. I agree with the gut feel that 50%+1 is a weak test, but that really depends on what's being tested. If we can articulate goals in the RFC, that will also help inform how the community approaches writing RFCs. I have some concerns that a very high bar will make it difficult to change extensions if their users aren't well-represented here. Thanks, Adam
