Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The majority rule can lead to decisions that do not account for how strongly individuals feel about their choices, potentially ignoring strong opposition or preference for other options. This can lead to dissatisfaction and issues in implementing the decision, as it might not reflect the intensity of the stakeholders' preferences.
