Original comment:

I don’t know much about voting systems, but I know someone who does. Unfortunately he’s currently banned. Maybe we can wait until his 3-month ban expires and ask him for advice?

Exactly, which is why as a decision-maker, if you're getting a lot of pushback, it's important to take a step back and rethink your decision. It could be that you're absolutely right, or it could be that you're being obstinate just because you don't like having your authority challenged.

That's basically my day job. I make decisions all the time, and when I get pushback, I take a step back and try to look at the decision with fresh eyes. I would expect anyone in a position like this to do the same.
