   I think the point is that the groups in this hierarchy would be removed
after a short period of time. Perhaps a group would be created with a 
specific sunset date. If it is to extend beyond that date, then it would
need a new vote. 
   I think the idea is to have real rules about voting, but with fewer
votes needed. So alt and trial (does anyone get trial?) aren't the same.
