I propose not to allow any delegations on the following tracks which should be considered of vital importance:
The idea behind delegation is good, it's the concept that for specific actions you do not want to vote yourself but you rather trust a third party. However for things of extreme importance it is risky to trust a third party because of the well-known agent problem
Just like in your daily life you can issue a POA for a commercial contract but not for extremely important events like for example marriage / divorce / etc
Certain events are so critical that it is important to know that there is no risk that the agent might have a different opinion than the owner
This is not specifically targeted at DV (even if of course their role has to be considered) but it's more about the idea that for certain tracks it is perfectly reasonable to do delegations and for others it's not in order to protect the integrity of the system
SubSquare is proposing to not allow delegations on certain tracks that are very important for the protocol. These tracks include the Root track, Wish for change track, and Treasurer track. Delegation is a good idea, but it can be risky to trust a third party for things that are extremely important. Certain events are so critical that it is important to know that there is no risk that the agent might have a different opinion than the owner. This proposal is not specifically targeted at DV, but it's more about protecting the integrity of the system.
Threshold
I propose not to allow any delegations on the following tracks which should be considered of vital importance:
Root track (could completely change the protocol)
Wish for change track (could produce deep changes in the protocol)
Treasurer track (unlimited spending without any cap, potentially burning the full treasury if the beneficiary address is a burn address)
