The proposal itself, before being presented to the mailinglist already
has a history. One/Some people already spent quiet some time thinking
about something which currently is not working and finding a way to make
things better. They write down a documentation how they want to enhance
the current policy. So saying "I understand what your arguments for a
change are and feel that it is a good idea to adjust the policy as you
described" (or shorthand: +1) imho *is* different then simply saying
"what you write is bullshit".

Actually each argumentation is starting with one side presenting their
working hypothesis with a description on why and how they come to it and
looking for supporters. It's the other side who needs to *explain* what
is not ok with that hypothesis and why they speak *against* it, at that
point. Because the reasoning *for* that hypothesis already exists.
