It would make sense to vote against this if you suspected that the proposer might have spotted it as part of their final checks while planning a scam victory, and weren’t planning such a scam yourself.

[Kevan] So if I understand correctly, the ones who are voting against are just trying to postpone the enactment of the proposal rather than trying to put the game in a deadlock, right?

It’s only Josh voting against, here; Brendan’s vote of “DEF” is deferring to City Architect’s decision (which is currently in favour).

Josh could be hoping that enough other people feel the same way about keeping the victory condition locked, that it could be unlocked a few days later instead. He may be onto something, given that the infinite Move On bug hasn’t yet been patched, but he doesn’t seem to be pushing very strongly for it.

This proposal is already at quorum, though, so it will be enacted as soon as the older proposal in the queue (Zero as a Limit) is passed or failed.
