I believe you misunderstand the situation. A vote that is not adverstised by translated messages amoung all domains is much worse than doing nothing.
Translations are helpful if provided within a given time frame (there were 14 days within which this could have been done in Datrio's case). They can by no means be required since they depend on volunteers doing the translation work. Regardless, let's let the issue rest for now as the compromise seems to at least be accepted.
I know of no one who was involved the decision.
You're right that the current decision was essentially forced from the outside. This is the regrettable result of the internal standstill.
