For d, I guess one could call it ratification buffer. Not very inspired now, but surely we can come up with a self-explanatory name.
In regards to the zeroing, Let me get this straight. The point of zeroing the accumulated support each time the majority changes, especially when the majority changes often, is to ensure the deliberation takes longer and avoids the risk of a proposal passing without real support. What are the other aims, if any, of the zeroing step?

-No, I explanied wrongly first time. The aim is to speed up in case of a majority switch since otherwise, the accumulated support would have to decrease a time from the initial side until it could start build up on the new side. With the zeroing, this is shortened a bit since only built up on the new side has to be made before the acc. support reaces +1 or -1. The total time will be enough long anyway since we have had a switch in majority and the first side build up is “waisted” time. No other aims.
