===Interpolations===

The comparison table, in addition to pulling in designs for broad-based decision guidance, also pulls in those for decision making wherever they are [[Property:Is inclusive|inclusive]] in terms of participation.  Some are actually suitable for broad-based decision guidance, while others might be adapted to that purpose.  All are pulled in and interpolated for sake of completeness.  The "guided system" for each is specified by a self symbol ↩.

Also interpolated are some ''non-inclusive'' designs, including those of the traditional [[Stuff:Executive|executive]], [[Stuff:Legislature|legislature]], [[Stuff:Legislative committee|legislative committee]] and [[Stuff:Electoral campaign|electoral campaigns]].  These serve as reference points in the comparison.
