Exactly, because the definition of democracy changes over time. When democracy was first invented, only very few percent of the population actually enjoy the voting rights back in Greece. And then now we see also people gradually expanding the right of other people of different gender, different ethnicities and so on to vote across the centuries. And so, it’s always the same process: a science-briefed, randomly selected jury determines. And sometimes, of course, it’s not so randomly selected but I happen to like random selection.
