Yes, it's always worth it to weigh in on this and other topics. All views are thoroughly read and considered when policy is eventually written. The process is explained in greater detail at T:WRITE POLICY.

While Tangerineduel or myself — as the site's two active bureaucrats — usually are the primary authors of policy, we have often written policy from opinions contrary to our own. I wrote T:ITAL, for instance, but it is very much the "will of others".

Of course, sometimes it takes a while for policy to get written. Some discussions have lasted for over a year, with months where the discussion is sorta dormant. So, in a sense, when you suggest that there's a "last man standing" element to policy writing, you're sort of correct. Often, someone has to come by a dead conversation and either stoke it back to flame or write up the results as they then exist.

On the other hand, some policies go through in about a week.

It just depends.
