I agree with Marc's position too. I mostly wanted to take the position
that a majority vote should be used as a last resort only, rather than as a
rule, which it would eventually become if we start introducing this as a
formal rule (the exception becomes the rule) .... but having different
voting processes for different types of decisions makes more sense.
Also, I don't know if this is already the process, but as a way to move
through tough situations, we could consider that at least one other member
has to express support for a block in order to validate it... The 2/3 rule
is sounding worse the more I think about it: you could have 3 members
expressly against a proposal and still approve it. That may not be
sustainable long term.

i personally wouldn't block this, but i think if we move toward a 2/3
majority, the larger collectives should get additional delegates.
also - has jesse provided an invoice for his work so far? seems like we
should see the invoice before agreeing to pay, as a matter of professional
services protocol and recordkeeping.

3. Revision to Consensus Process:
Thus far, the Omni Collective has made decisions using a full
consensus model. The proposal on the table is for votes to strive for
full consensus, but resort to a 2/3 majority vote if consensus cannot
be achieved. This model was recommended by Jesse, who has extensive
experience representing coops and collectives who've run into problems
with full-consensus models for hairy decisions like banning an abusive
individual or - as may be the case with us - removing particular
groups/collectives from the larger collective.
I am blocking this one. We can implement different voting models for
specific types of decisions similar to what sudo has. Revoking consensus
completely is a lazy solution (and yes, this suggestion is equivalent to
revoking consensus as the decision-making process).
