Humerously Ambiguous:
StopEnergy is related to BikeShedding?, in which something can't get designed, because so many people are capable of forming an opinion about something. The story is, "It's easier to design a nuclear power plant, than it is to design a bike shed, because everybody can get an idea into their head about how the bike shed is designed."
The practice of HabitualCapitulation might systematically counter StopEnergy. That is, whenever there is an idea, just accept it and run with it, after minimal exchange without confrontation.
