Fix For/Against vote imbalance by not counting votes towards the opposite quorum threshold

Aquarius governance proposal #128 fixes a voting system asymmetry where Against votes are counted toward the For quorum threshold, suppressing minority voting. The fix makes voting symmetric by letting Against votes count only toward the Against threshold, giving both directions equal strategic opportunity.

Aquarius DAO governance proposal #128 addresses a structural asymmetry in the voting system where Against votes are counted toward the For vote quorum, creating time-window and psychological disadvantages for opposition voters. The proposal identifies two key issues: 1) Against voters must wait until quorum is reached to vote effectively, giving them a shorter time window than For voters. 2) This triggers a bandwagon effect where trailing options appear less viable. Historical voting data shows 86% For vs 14% Against participation. The fix: Against votes count only toward the Against threshold, and vice versa, eliminating imbalance and giving both directions equal strategic opportunity.
