That's a reasonable hypothesis, but given the success and longevity of Debian, my default approach would be to assume that Debian's democratic aspects are fine.

There's grumbling and complaints around most votes, but Debian continues to work, so it looks to me like grumbling and complaints are not enough of a marker of something being a problem.

In other words, the peanut gallery is working fine :-)

Eh.

philh is Phil Hands, who has been a Debian developer for longer than me, and I joined in 2001.

Rather than a hypothesis, this is someone speaking from experience. And fwiw, I agree with Phil's assessment of the situation.
