That's basically how we ended up with the new process we tried this time. Previous cycles people expressed concerns that the names they came up with were pared down in private by some mysterious force--lawyers--who decided what was left for them to rank (after the TC scaled down the list to few enough that it wouldn't take legal forever to research them all). For the M cycle name we tried to let the community rank the choices first and then have the lawyers vet them in community preferred order instead. You're basically arguing in favor of the old process people were complaining about.
