According to the article, the behavior of Pai is such that he, e.g., asked for a widely held discussions about process, yet didn't do anything of that when got to decide. That is inconsistent - in a sense that before he was arguing for debates as a cover of the process to try to get the results he was hoping for, and now he just sees easier ways to get them - so no cover is necessary. There can be better ways to argue against Pai, but the problem is actually on a higher level - Pai is just a demonstration of the problem in a particular, separate area. So there are better ways not because we should focus more on Pai, but because of the opposite.
