That vote took place three times. It was done first by the OSMF

They're several years old now.
The community polls were post-hoc rationalizing, window dressing,
unofficial and poorly worded. In legitimate democratic votes, the vote
occurs BEFORE the decision to implement a plan takes place. It is
tacitly acknowledged in that the mechanism in the CTs is different from
what previously had happened. But really the past doesn't matter as much
as what we do next.
