Consider that forcing people to hear, consider, react and "vote" on something in public might be the "snake like" behavior. Some topics require quiet reflection. Some topics do better with a secret ballot. Some objections are heard better in private, etc. Or, sometimes, it's just poker, and revealing your hand too early puts you at a disadvantage to someone else that's also manipulating the circumstances to benefit themselves. It's all regrettable, but that's the human condition.
