It's an arguably accurate description, but strikes me as an arguably
misleading credit.

Depends what principle. I do not suggest compromising on the DFSG,
but I do suggest compromising over exactly which licence to use to
as the basis for meeting the DFSG.

I think it remains to be seen which decision the project took. The
position statement issued was vague at best, contradictory at worst,
and has caused ripples which I think will provoke another vote. Any
fools who ranked Further Discussion insincerely low and produced a bad
compromise will get what they least wanted: further discussion and more
voting as some DDs to try to still this chaos produced by imposing order.
