I saw this time and time again. I can think of a number of instances where the elders were uncomfortable with whatever the latest push was, but ultimately caved in, fearing the outcome if they were to not go along with it.

Your post Freedom, made me consider perhaps LC elders knew whatever the latest flow may be is nothing but folly. Yet the comply and go along with it as lip service, but are not truly 100% behind it. Just to show they gave it a try.
PSRP comes to mind.
