Whatever decision the conference leadership made, it would offend someone.
Apparently, making women and minorities decide whether Yarvin would be permitted to present was too much for some, since it put the onus on those "oppressed" individuals.
But if they had just made an executive decision, they would have been castigated for "erasing voices of oppressed persons" or some similar complaint.
Under the circumstances, they made the only plausible decision: in favor of free expression and sharing of ideas, and against the awful "no-platforming" that the Left seeks to promote against all their political opponents.
