It's not your understanding of proportionality that isn't up to standard, it's your understanding of how our Council operates on the most basic levels.

We have a policy of 'One Zoner, One Vote.' That includes people that work for larger corporations. The TAZ don't have one vote.. They have one vote for each member of theirs that votes. If five TAZ vote yes on an issue, TAZ has five votes. If five TAZ vote yes, and one TAZ votes no, they have five yes votes and one no vote. We do not discriminate on delegates based on who they work for.

If you do a bit of digging, you might even discover that I was the person who worked towards getting this policy enacted, as I, an independent Zoner, felt is was unreasonable for an entire group consisting of several members to receive the same influence as a single Zoner. And much to my, an independent Zoner's, satisfaction, the policy was amended to grant full votes to every single Zoner, regardless of their status in being in or out of a group.

In fact, some members of those very groups have voiced their concerns that the policy that granted them the same power as the independent Zoners may have given the factions too much power in the end. A quote from Louisa Salome;

The Consortium as a whole has to part now, which is also a chance for all independent Zoners assembled in this council to wield more power because "One Zoner, One Vote" has shifted the balance of power in these chambers dramatically.

I assume an enlightened man like yourself can understand the meaning of Ms. Salome's statement.
