handdecided
Handdecided is a term used to describe a decision that is made by an individual or a small, specific group of people rather than through a more formal or democratic process. It implies a personal, often subjective, choice based on the judgment and discretion of the person or people involved. The term suggests that the decision is not necessarily governed by pre-existing rules, policies, or widespread consensus. It highlights the element of human agency and personal preference in the outcome. This type of decision-making can occur in various contexts, from personal choices to business operations, and can be seen as either efficient and decisive or potentially arbitrary and unfair, depending on the circumstances and the individuals making the decision. The lack of formal process means that the reasoning behind a handdecided outcome might not always be transparent or easily justifiable to external parties.
