IOW I don't see anyone (or some group of 3) who is as well-versed in everything on Guido's level. That can be solved if Guido agrees to join the permanent N-virate though :)
No one has suggested we haven't been extremely lucky for the past 28 years. :) I also don't think we will reach perfection in any solution anyway and this is somewhat of a "least bad" situation.
Are we looking for people who are skilled at language design, or who are skilled at building consensus through open decision-making processes? Because those are very different sorts of skills, and if this new body is intended to only be a final arbiter on decisions the former set of skills may be less important than the latter.
IMHO the N-virate should primarily be responsible for delegation.
Side note: I think we'll be talking less and less about language design, and instead about library and infrastructure design.
