Ive added the "" because i think there is no real opposition

But there are people who loose their vote rights with this vote.
So if they vote for the obvious options they kind of self castrate

for them this looks like

1. cut off my tail
2. cut off my balls
3. stop new developers after 2020 from having vote rights

This must just looks like a choice between tea, window and airplane for
some people, if you know what i mean

(and yes it seems my humour is modulated by lack of reasonable sleep)
