We could leave that up to the project secretary.
I.E. allow the secretary to establish policies and procedures and refine
them over time.
Something like
"The project secretary may require summaries of ballot proposals and may
revise provided summaries."
I'd imagine that this is one of those things where different project
secretaries may view things differently depending on how comfortable
they are summarizing.
I think all too often we specify more than we need to in the
constitution.

I do not object.

No, I'd prefer to keep call for a vote.
