Governance is a thing of the past, it's all campaigning all the time now. Why do you think they fail so hard to accomplish anything? If they actually fix things they have to find something new to run on. It's like studios who focus on sequels and reboots, it's a known quantity. They know people will show up for those platform positions, so they don't want to remove them as an option.
