To be more clear: in https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Proposed_features/Ground&diff=2018441&oldid=2018440
I removed "Any opposition vote without reason or suggestion will not be counted in the voting process."as it is an undiscussed modification of a proposal voting and a refusal to follow instructions on https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposal_process#Voting Opposition votes without reason or suggestion are still valid and will be counted. Though asking such voters for feedback/explanation is OK and it is preferable to explain your vote.
