interesting views…
actually this is a significant difference between k and minPoolCost.
- significantly (eg doubling) increasing k is enforcing all Pools into a new situation
- significantly (eg halving) lowering minPoolCost is not enforcing any pool owner to follow this new lower threshould. It is a free choice for every individual operator to keep, gradually or instantly lower.
If I understand you right, you don’t like the CF-influenced options, but want another option who does not allow other Pool owners to immediately lower their mPC to halve of now? right?
Wrong! please read the announcements and try to understand to scope and processes between the Poll, the Parameter Committee and the genesis key holders.
please read the poll question till the very last word 
Why do you think judging on the number of votes, or anything else then stake weight is relevant other than having some statistic reports?
Block production and consensus in delegated proof of stake is entirely, fully and only based on cumulated stake weight. If 15000 very small pools decide something against the interest of the top300 largest pools (and all their delegators), why should these 300 accept it and start running software to hardfork into something they don’t want?
PoS is PoS nothing else.
Especially as long as nobody comes up with a viable alternative on how to count votes, wallets or heads in a reliable way.
The results for minPoolCost have a quite clear preference, while the results on k are very ambiguous. Clearly no consensus on that, and much more an open question about participation and majority thresholds.
What is your definition of consensus?
- majority threshold
- 50%+1lovelace
- …of participating or delegated stake
how would you determine consensus in the future on more complex parameter changes with multiple directly related and influenced parameters?
If you poll them individually, how to ensure the voted results fit togeter, make sense and are not resulting in a complete disfunctional state?
If you poll them all together as “parameter-sets”, how to define them to not end up on socials then with people complaining about “my perfect preference was not given, so this is not valid and there is no consensus” ?
