Elevating this reply to the main timeline as a useful general rule of thumb when thinking about the Roman Republic and its political systems. When in doubt - a bunch of Roman elites probably got together and made it up as they went along.https://twitter.com/BretDevereaux/status/1402321834163544064 …

Honestly looking at a century and a half now of reevaluating German scholarship has taught me that if a reconstruction of the Roman system seems simple, direct and rules-based, it is almost certainly wrong and one should assume ample BS ad-hoc-ery wherever possible.
