I think a fair explanation would be that it's a meritocracy of 
effort and ability. Walter has put an enormous amount of effort 
into D over a long period and therefore his view holds great 
sway. It's a good system for a project like this generally though 
it falls down a bit on issues that are more personal preference 
than technical.
