The aversion to permissioned arrangements does a lot of harm in the DAO space. Voting does not work well for every kind of decision 

Civilization was built on top of trustful assumptions. As long as we make sure trusted roles are not capturable like in the status quo, we will be much better off relying on them.

TL;DR: vote for role specification and attribution, then delegate decision-making power and budgets to the roles.

Trying to get a majority to agree on every single decision just leads us into governance fatigue.

Yeah understand the general theme, was curious if you had specific next steps for Nouns?

I think conviction voting is a good experiment to run. Despite the misnomer (IMO), I see it as gathering enough support to make something happen, instead of trying to get everyone to agree that it should be done.

That would create space for further experimentation, hopefully without being too contentious.
