Resurrection by public vote: who actually comes back?

Say resurrection becomes possible, but there's a limit and the public votes on who gets it.

So it's a numbers game, and fame wins. Einstein, Jobs, Michael Jackson, lady Diana, Marilyn Monroe would be back in the first week. Most of the people voting for them never met them.

Then it gets ugly, because fame isn't only love. Hitler and Stalin are about as famous as it gets. If the ballot only has YES, they come back too.

What fixes it, I think, is a NO option. Then it's not about who's most known, it's known minus feared. Some very famous people would lose that one. I'm honestly not sure how Elon would do. 😁

Curious what you'd add. Would you even want a vote system, or something else?
