True, in a way. I've several deletion decisions, vicariously. Once upon a time, I had a reputation for something other than witchcraft, and a request like "{{db|because i said so [see XfD]}}" would usually be fulfilled. Of course, non-deletion decisions are often more rewarding, especially those that require thought or creativity, such as merging (even if nobody else suggested that), or fixing whatever the original problem was (particularly if nobody else even gave it a try).
