What on earth is bikeshedding? That's a new one on me!
That's when you ask something in a large community that is easy to have
an opinion on and with many possible opinions - e.g. asking "which color
should we paint our bikeshed?" or "what disk format is best" or "which
computer should I buy?"

The choice of easy problems with many possible solutions is the observed
behaviour, but the outcome is that "members of an organization give
disproportionate weight to trivial issues".
