No. Our position was and is that superdelegates are anti-democratic and should have been eliminated entirely. We were opposed by powerful people in a registered corporation who told a judge "we can pick our candidate any way we want". So we were only able to get the compromise that lets the well-connected have a back-door to getting their way -- flood the field with candidates that have no chance at rising above say, #3 or #4 , in order to stop the progressives from getting a majority on the first vote. Then bring in the superdelegates and take it all back. That is exactly what they did.
Saying that we can't credibly complain about this is like saying blacks can't credibly complain about stop and frisk because they "had a voice in the process".
