Matching level of discussion: Discussion in a group is best performed between people who share the same interest. Many people will be ready to discuss with people that they see as a match in intellectual capabilities, and has the same level of knowledge in the topic. The question, therefore, is how to create a group of people that can benefit from working together on a topic.

One method is to create closed groups, that only invited members can join, but this solution harms the inclusive nature of deliberation. To overcome the problem of inclusiveness, the people in the closed group can suggest a solution, to be discussed by others.
