Offering a wide variety of meat to a vegan is what current democracy is
doing.
Yet i understand Mirek's worries: your proposal seems to offer a
DIFFERENT elite the supremacy (currently in the hand of democracy) via
merits achieved according specific goals/parameters. Now i understand
that this higly ideal elite should guarantee a better distribution (of
wealth, info, etc..) to the many, but what mechanism can even prevent
the new elite to behave like any other elite (ie exploiting the
resources per personal/cast reasons)?
