Okay, that makes sense to me. I am then changing my proposal to:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each TC member must vote on such decision according to what is, in their
view, best for the project. If a TC member feels they are affected by a
conflict of interest with regards to the case, they should announce it
and recuse themselves from the TC discussion and vote. A conflict of
interest is presumed to occur when a TC member has a personal interest
(e.g. financial) in a specific outcome of the case.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

If someone wants a "stronger" version of this among the voting options,
feel welcome to propose one.
