You know, Ant, I think deleting the other thread was not at all a necessary measure (And I'm sure everyone who's laid eyes on it thinks the same), but since there's nothing to be done regarding that, I'll just copypaste what I said there:
Hopping in here for a moment to say that, as far as the Universal Veto system goes: I am firmly of the opinion that it, if at all, it should only apply to changes that actually objectively impact the entirety of the wiki. That is to say: Changes to site rules, changes to the Tiering System, changes to general discussion rules, and so on and so forth, would all fall under that umbrella.
What wouldn't fall under it would be: Verse policy issues (i.e Discussion and/or site rules that are only applied to specific verses, not to the whole site), Staff Discussion threads that are basically just CRTs that have been moved to another board to avoid chaos, and etc. Extending the Veto system to these matters creates an environment that's more than perfect for power abuse to take place, and overall it's preferable that any insinuations of absolute power on the part of the bureaucracy are minimized as much as possible.
