Well, it's true. ;->

But at the same time, anyone who's read the Evil Overlord List knows you
don't want to be hassled by your Faceles Minions all the time and
micromanaging your empire. You want said empire to run smoothly by
itself so you have time to relax and take your jackboots off.

And it turns out that the best way to ensure nobody f*cking with the
listadmin is to intervene seldom and minimally, and let software do all
the heavy lifting. It's what Lord Vetinari, Patrician of Ankh-Morpork,
would do.

    'Ankh-Morpork had dallied with many forms of government and had
    ended up with that form of democracy known as One Man, One Vote. 
    The Patrician was the Man; he had the Vote.'
