How about an RFC like process for gameplay changes? An own repository just for discussing these changes via PRs, where one has to “own“ a RFC document when proposing new stuff. People can discuss aspects on a per line basis or on the whole proposal. Also having a clear changelog by merging accepted proposals into the repo helps.
What's the goal? Give the illusion of open development? Game design can't remain coherent if we try to please everyone

If you're interested in taking part of gameplay development bear I'm sure you are welcome, but because of your past contributions and the fact that I know you actually played the game enough and to a level advanced enough to have a meaningful voice

I find that RFC driven development leads either to everyone pushing for their pet peeves and leaving with a mess or as a fake open development model to look open

Obviously it works for more technical projects that are less opinionated and were balance matters less than games.
