either way this is not about executing a veto and the whole debate
around a particular person's position misses the point and puts an
unfair onus on that person. I'd rather wish the same logic would
be applied to the undoubtedly high number of 'yes' votes(sic!).

If it's all about 'one person cannot block' then tell me, how many
would it need?

Since the burden of proof seems to be on the 'objector' rather than the
proponent, I cannot prove sky will fall, but I know that once sky starts
falling, discussing the counter measures will become increasingly unpleasant.
