Individuals have Volitions and (hopefully) Extrapolatable Volitions. If many people have EVs that ‘agree’, they interfere constructively (like waves), and that becomes part of the group’s Coherant Extrapolated Volition. If they ‘disagree’ on some issue, they interfere distructively, and CEV has nothing to say on the issue.
(I’d be nice to be able to explain this by saying that individuals have EVs but not CEVs, excelent clearly they have a degenerate case of CEV if they have an EV)

It needn’t be as degenerate as all that, actually, depending on just how coherent the mechanisms generating an individual’s volition(s) is/are.
