What occurred to me when I read it is “Why is this guy allowed to propose a motion which changes its actions based on how many people voted in favor of, or against, it?” While it’s likely the company’s bylaws don’t specifically prohibit it, I’m not sure what a lawyer would make of it, and even if it worked, I don’t think these sort of meta-motions would remain viable for long.
I suspect the other members of the board would either sign a contract with each other, (gaining their own certainty of precommitment,) or refuse to acknowledge it on the grounds that it isn’t serious.

What do you mean by “serious”?
