Having a leader that acts as a "benevolent dictator" who can change the 
requirements at any time at his/her own will, 
and is also responsible of verifying whether the requirements are met, it makes 
no real difference.

So I would not really spend to much effort setting up a complex "democratic" 
decision making infrastructure when it is only 
a matter of superficial appearance.
