DM has some definite advantages, people more autonomy and have a whole lot more to show when going for DDship, and some flaws, it makes the process of becoming a DD longer and possibly more tedious (depending on perspective) than the question and answer process. The same could be said for rotating TC members. So, I think it worth considering the larger perspective that the project may view the TC as insular, and that possibly something should be done about that.
