We will accept the will of the majority of developers when the time for
making a decision comes if no consensus has been reached.

But before this point, every single developer in the project should
listen to the advice of whoever has the most experience and knowledge
about a particular topic.

This is an appeal to authority, but the good kind, not "listen to me
because I'm famous" but "listen to me because I know more about this
particular issue".
