Camels are pretty dang well designed creatures so I'd say the committee did pretty great there. And the alternative is being at the whims of a single person or a small group none of whom have any incentive to care about anything other than the enrichment of their own personal finances. It's a literal autocracy.

Governance structures where the workers own and have a say in the means of production are bound to have their own issues to be sure, but it beats out the current model.
