This way of decision-making, in which the highest man of power had the authority of the final decision while suppressing complaints of under class people using the form of adopting their opinions, had been kept as a 'traditional' and 'fundamental' way until the Edo period.
下位の者の意見を取り上げる形式をとって下位の不満を抑えつつも、最終的な決裁権は最高権力者が保持し続けるというこのやり方は江戸時代に至るまで、「伝統的」・「原則的」手法として守られ続けていった。
