They "should" be involved in the last proposal, no? And there is no
explanation of what this means and how it is enforced. Who decides that
a person's disapproval does not count because they have not contributed

Today, we have no process, so a benevolent dictator (or anyone with
actual operational power) may silently (or noisily) overrule a
disapproval. With a process in place, the veto power is enshrined.
