A bureaucrat does need the freedom to make decisions
and act, often
unilaterally, on them. He needs to pay attention to his community
and use that to guide his actions. There will nevertheless be times
when he will act in a way contrary to the community's wishes. That
is not inherently wrong, but the bureaucrat proceeds at his own
peril.
I do not understand. Are you talking about Wikipedia-bureaucrats?
A bureaucrat is only a sysop who can make other sysops and other
bureaucrats. The can not even revoke the sysop-powers.
What has being a bureaucrat to do whit having "power"?
Besides on a wiki where there totally no law and order an bureaucrat is
not allowed to grant sysop rights to a user with authorisation. For all
other situations the fact of a user is a bureaucrat is irrelevant.
