I don't see how all of those downsides couldn't be
mitigated, providing a GNU site or other means to
serve as single collection point, echoing point
(echoing current counts, text suggestions, etc.),
and even providing a discussion venue.

I'm not saying it can't be done. I'm saying it hasn't been done, and in all likelihood nobody is going to do it.

IOW, don't try to reproduce the polling here, there
and everywhere.  Just announce it here, there, and
everywhere.  Anyone who wants to discuss a poll
here, there, and everywhere is welcome to do so,
but that discussion will not automatically be
captured as part of the poll itself.

I say just do it on Reddit. Any traffic on the mailing list (which I see no reason to discourage) will pale in comparison.
