This is my opinion exactly

Some people who vote no are involved in the internals discussion, and
that's great. But some people vote no without a word. How do we know
they even understand the impact of their vote? Without their feedback
how can the proposal be improved?

Even if they say "I'm voting no because of all of the reasons stated
by Person X", that's enough to know that more than one person doesn't
like a specific aspect, and makes it a higher priority for
improvement.
