"Minor" means a change that the TalkBoard President and the proposer and the seconder and any other Yes voters agree is actually minor. In effect, it's a reasonable person standard.
Then a total of 6 Yes votes would still be needed to pass the motion. You don't think at least 4 TB members would object to abuse of the process? I am confident they would.
It's not possible to nail everything down in the formal process, but we've been winging this aspect of the process for years. I'd like to put at least this much of the process in writing.
