Because deliberation is a liberal method of coordination the liberal values are set in order to help the group choose the best option. In liberal values, every person is a free person and he is free to associate himself with any other free person.
 
When in deliberation large amount of options are evaluated as a solution for a common issue, Some options may harm some of the individuals, While other individuals make a profit from those options. In conservative values, members may choose the "[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_good common good]" principle as a method to select an option, Which means that on average most of the members profit even though a minority of members may lose.
