... it's more like 43%, which is far from "majority".
Plot it on geography, consider the difficulties imposed by geography, and you can see why it's an
effective majority (like it or not). But, that wasn't my point (as you well know).

Most of the disagreements within the structure have not been about east or west, it's been about changes to the organization's priorities. I suspect, much like any organization, there are some who wish to retain status quo and will resist those who wish to make any changes.
Yes, and the majority vote every year for "status quo". To put it terms you would understand "if it aint broke, don't fix it". Your radical approachs, although admittedly often hold some philosophical merit, appear to fail in light of practical application.

....chuckle.....some will say, "stop complaining and get involved if you want changes".............they only mean that if you wish to maintain status quo. They are not interested in your "involvement" if you are seeking change. I speak from experience after accepting the challenge to get involved............wow.......... I have since escaped.
Escape would be one interpretation.....
