Well, in Loch Soilleir, we were given to understand that the Crown could, and
would, force Principalities if they so chose.  That quite changed the tone of
the discussion.  Most people ended up voting for it because (based on
discussions with some as we broke up) it would be good for us in the long run
and not because it would solve the problems (Crown travel burden, crowded
calendar, bureaucratic efficiency) it was being proposed as a solution for
(which it won't).

My sentiments as well (as are the continuation of your post, which i've snipped
for the sake of brevity.)
