One challenge with a “drama jury” is that the people who are most motivated to be heavy participants aren’t necessarily the people you want driving the discussion. But I guess that’s equally true in open posts. The solution in classical Athens was to pay jurors a wage; IIRC, many jurors were semiretired old men who had a lot of bandwidth.
Potentially, you’d have a few nonvoting neutrals in the mix to help facilitate discussion. It’s easier to be in a facilitating frame of mind when you are not simultaneously being asked to vote on a verdict.
