My observations after reading comments here and in the chat:
Imo, trust and respect are different things. I have huge respect for the founders, the core team for their vision, the expertise they've shown, the work they have done. But I don't think this should imply trust in a space where everything is about trustlessness. For me this is not about earning trust, it's about building systems where trust is minimized.
It's not about being disrespectful, or suspicious, or such.
I also think that most of us understand the need for some structure in the DAO, and I also guess we all now that decentralization is a spectrum.
So I still think that the only problem here that this KIP is about two separate things:
1.) should we improve some things (as far as I can see, we all agree that we should)
2.) should we do it in this and that way (some of us don't think so)
I feel the same as @Sirob:
"What bothers me is that we are not experimenting. We basically have ONE option, which is not super creative."
There was also an opinion in the chat which caught my eye, and I think it might be important to discuss eg. during office hours. It was basically about the goal being more imporant than the means.
Anyway, I understand that this KIP is exatcly about the means. But can we have more discussion about the possibilities before voting on a particular one?
(I must also say that I do have trust for the Core Team and I'm so happy with the fact that we are even having such discussions, I won't mind if this KIP passes, but I still vote against for the reasons above )
Go Klima! <3
