Suppose you try to get a unanimous vote. If you succeed, that's that. If some people vote against it, now what? Either they are lying, or they really don't want the project at the price.

Even if you suspect that every no-voter really does want it, your policy of forcing everyone will indiscriminately catch innocents.

If they all agree to vote and abide by the majority decision that's fine. But of course that isn't how things work IRL. I can't withdraw from a vote on some new tax and refuse to be bound by it.
