Then please reply to them and explain your point, why the wording
is bad, what alternative wording you suggest and why thats better.

The questions about
1. allowing votes under conflict of interrest
2. if votes must be in the best interrest of the project
3. if one can vote on their own disagreements
...

are 3+ seperate things.

You are trying to pack good changes with a change that allows one to
vote on ones own disagreements.

I think a vote should be about what is disputed.
Not on a bunch of things we all seem to agree about bound to something people
disagree about.

thx
