Thanks for linking to the previous AMA from when our rules were originally approved. There's actually also one from last year when we began trading stocks, but I don't quite know how to look up the URL right now - while also typing these answers.

Although an earlier version of our proposal did have a voting-rights mechanism, as part of a one-size-fits-all prescription, we ultimately decided against it. Personally, I was hoping to offer "long-term voting" as a principled compromise between standard governance and dual-class shares. But in the interim, dual-class shares have basically won in the market. I'm still hopeful as an industry we will be able to find better solutions in the future
