Yes, but it's much more than that.  The diversity in decisions
relating to Debian's future need to be able to be influenced by the
people and for the people -- not by the political classes.  In this
case, the political classes are the DDs that have absolute privilege her
e.

IOW, the GR process itself is severely flawed and it cannot, in it's
current state provide what is needed for Debian from the eyes of all
reasonable stakeholders, it is very limited to a small group of Debian
users known collectively as DDs .. the current "gods" of Debian whom
have ultimate power to do good or do bad with or for the project.
[Such] Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Kind Regards
