Queen exposed, checkmate
<Lets take an omniscient perspective, and go to the hypothetical situation where there is one side that is clearly wrong, and one side that is certainly right.
Sheesh! Have you ever heard of hubris? Your post makes me profoundly grateful that democracy works against such arrogance. You are not omniscient, and you are not capable of making decisions that affect the lives of a quarter billion people.
does your scenarion really help whichever side is right?
Hell no! The point is that the system should be neutral, and should not favor one faction over another. Universal democracy is the best practical solution to achieve that neutrality. Equal protection under the law, not the best protection money can buy.
