There is some amount of subjectivity in evaluating proposals, which is not ideal. It's important for us (all, together) to figure out [how we can improve our process](https://meta.codidact.com/posts/279903). Ultimately we probably need to make some software changes to better support proposals, but right now we have those "indicate your interest" posts. We're caught between the goals of not creating ghost towns on the one hand and not holding back communities on the other. Suspicious voting does not help. Inflating a proposal's apparent support makes "ghost town" more likely, which harms everyone. I wish people would not do this. We are aware of some situations that call for scrutiny, and we're taking it into account. (Separately, that flag issue sounds like a bug, and I've asked someone with database access to look into what happened there. Thanks for the report.)
