"I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are."

Do those certain circumstances apply here? Shouldn’t there be a legal check from the judiciary?

It’s a standard quality measurement tactic in Internet based surveys. In the list of survey questions, you post a few question which have clear black or white answers. The answers from the survey takers will let you know to further investigate the the survey response. You can then decide to take actions accordingly. Most of the times, you discard.

> Yes it fails in some (demonetization) and wins in most but at least there is no policy paralysis like in the UPA era.

This is OP's personal perception and opinion of the current and the former government.

> The article says the initial dissent from the management was due to Covid19 concerns

Here's the arrangement from the Worker's Council to address the concern

>>> How do you ensure the health and safety of participants of the Electoral Board meeting given COVID19?

> Our Health & Safety concept has been drawn up in collaboration with legal experts.

> The venue we selected accommodates up to 500 people with proper physical distancing. N26 Operations GmbH has less than 500 employees, so even if all of them decide to participate, the meeting can go ahead. N26 GmbH has more employees than 500; however, with holidays, illness and travels, we anticipate that not all of them will come to the Electoral Board meeting. In the (very unlikely) event that 500 or more people turn up, the meeting will have to be postponed.

> The contact details of each participant will be collected and kept for the time required by law.

> At the entrance, we will check the identity of each participant to ensure that no unauthorized or external people can enter. On the 13th of August, only employees of N26 Operations GmbH can enter. On the 14th of August, only employees of N26 GmbH can enter.

> If you experience symptoms of a cold, flue and/or COVID19, or you were told to quarantine, please do not come to the meeting! After the Electoral Board is set up, you will still be able to vote for the delegates for the Working Council.

> I'm not sure I believe that.

So, what would make you believe it?

Bayesian approaches are more transparent regardless of them being "honest" or not.

> If the prior is arbitrary anyways you could also stick to your unknown prejudice

One way to think about a prior is to make your prejudices transparent rather than unknown.

It’s not fine for some other people. How can we as a society come to a fair proposal for delivery of mail?
