Yeah, consensus sounds like a good solution I didn't think of. But then there are scaling issues, imo, consensus is not for thousands at once, maybe we get to representatives interacting with neighbouring communities, but that already seems to diverge from original idea

    But isn't this going to create issues for minority if what its members want is reasonable but inconveniences the majority? I don't want to come up with a specific example, but something like improved accessibility for a disabled person that requires resources and may be seen as unnecessary by most comes to mind

    Afaik it's one of the issues with democracy: how to define what is good for everyone when people have conflicting interests and groups are disproportionate
