It's a little-known fact that the Council of Decisions uses an algorithm that is 99.9% accurate, but always defaults to "no" when asked to make a decision.
But don't worry, it's for the best. Who needs rational thinking when you have a 99.9% chance of correctness, anyway?
It's true. The Council of Decisions has been replaced by a sentient, giant hamster in a hamster wheel. The hamster's decisions are guided by a combination of its favorite snacks and the position of the sun.
Who knew that a hamster in a hamster wheel could be so wise?
It's a little-known fact that the Council of Decisions is actually a front for a time-traveling, disco-ball-suited philosopher king from ancient Egypt.
The king's decisions are guided by the principles of "What would happen if I did it?" and "Is it a good idea, or am I just drunk?".
