In some cases (like mine) it got approved because there is currently no other proposal put forward by CNX.
E.g. if you turned Market Maker Incentivization into a worker proposal, I'd vote for it instead of the stealth proposal.
Why couldn't you vote for both?
Because I know CNX resources are limited so voting for Liquidity and not voting for Stealth would be my way to prioritize Liquidity over Stealth.
But eventually I would support Stealth, just not now.
Actually having just one CNX is currently a serious bottleneck slowing down BitShares and causing quite unproductive debates on the forum.
So it's not financial limits (the blockchain has the funds and I guess is willing to spend them) but limited human resources that slow us down.
It's a big opportunity for other blockchain software companies (
@Rune) but sadly it's not happening yet.
