It happens everywhere. Consider technical standards. Engineers make proposals, and then committees of senior specialists make decisons. In university departments, professors may propose courses to be given, and what the study materials will be. Then a department head or senior committee will weigh the proposals and decide what happens next. Your daughters may argue over distribution of candy, so Mommy or Daddy (singly or in consultation) will have to step in and issue a ruling. What lawyers do is reperesent their clients. Judges or referees or juries then decide who has the best case. And so on.

Real meaning is for philosophers, revelation is for theologians. The rest of us do the best we can and seek guidance and support when they are needed - and hope that the guides and helpers are honest.
