I am afraid you simplified my responses too much.

For the first quote, I pointed out we don't need to poll to learn what
type of complaint exists.  I don't even oppose "I feel myself
qualified but Eleccom said differently. Yeeek" type pole. But from
talk page interactions, I think we know already what kind of claims we
have. For that purpose, we have not to have a poll. The claimed
minimum line is "all editors including anons", and I don't think there
is a much lower requirement.

For the second quote, rational review of rules and policies are always
helpful in my opinion, specially when we know some grumbling about
that. Such polls would however be different from the suggested at
first, and I strongly suggest it should be intersubjective, what type
of requirement the community or at least the majority of the community
think adequate, ideally regardless how it affects themselves.
