I agree, but many people—some of whom seem to be highly engaged in the community—clearly believe that they do need to do so. Even if the truth is that they don’t, the fact that this belief is widespread is a significant issue for our community. We need to have open mechanisms for feedback on actions and ideas, so that we do end up doing the most good.
Tl,dr: You are correct, these are logically separate points. But people not having faith in the process is the important issue imo.
