I will try again. What I am saying is just a mathematical truth.

I a Bylaw says that to REJECT something (whether it is GAC Advice or a GNSO PDP Recommendation or where to go have dinner) at least 2/3 of the Board must reject. That is, 1/3 or less of the Board opt to accept. If the Board does NOT reject, then it means that less that 2/3 voted to reject. That is mathematically identical to greater than 1/3 accepts, sine the total must be 1.

I do not clearly understand your argument in saying " if a given
issue required 2/3 majority to be rejected by the Board, then to accept
the same issue, the Board requires 1/3 vote "
There is no logic in that example?
