It was interesting enough to me, anyway. But, it always begged the question of "why now?" why not repeal the C-G during the golden age of peace- the Star League?
Anyway, the Great Debate was colored by the participants. The anti-Mariks ended up voting the same direction as the anti-C-G people. Tommy Halas storylines made me sigh that way. There were few shades of gray. You were either with him or against him, and he played favorites that way. Even the Orloff Grenadiers, who nervously suppoted Tommy while he tried to reduce their individualism and traditions just ended up voting alongside him. Boring. The Regulans, who clearly wanted a Cameron-Jones on the throne ended up voting to force the C-G to step down, vacating the position. A waste of both parties' storylines, from my perspective.
What I found interesting was the vote to dismantle the League. People can place blame where they want, but the League voted to shut itself down. Alot of the votes came from unaligned planets, too.
