I...actually find myself agreeing with you. Whoa.They did once. But during the Great Consolidation, we had to go to one Duke one Vote like the old days. I would support the recreation of the 10 Vote distribution system, and readmit Barons. But yes, barons are supposed to vote for the Praetor.
This bill removes Barons as nobles in all but name. Makes them meaningless and useless. The next step will be to remove their noble status outright. And it will come to that. Cause if we want this far, why not go further.
We should be making Baron more useful, not less. More meaningful, not less. We have a growing citizen base, we should be making more positions, not less. This bill is the sort of bill we should pass when we are shrinking as a nation.
I proposed removing Baronies because right now they are meaningless in reality so they might as well be meaningless legally as well. I didn't try to make them meaningful because I thought you'd oppose it. But if you support it...well...that works.
It gets complicated, though. For example, should we give Dukes the option to ennoble everyone in their Duchy and grant them one vote, thus making it effectively a democracy? I think it would be neat and add another dimension to local government, but I imagine Landsraad purists would oppose it.
