This means that you will be able to be well represented by someone knowledgeable who you trust in each topic, or an even more specialised expert who they trust.īelow is a simplified diagram of how this would work on a small scale – I hope it still illustrates well how such a system would be able to scale up while providing good representation for all participants in each topic.
