The rules you propose there lead to the ridiculous effect that people who
want to astain will instead actually leave the meeting so that their vote is
truly excluded rather than counted against the majority. This is exactly
what regularly happens in the Italian Senate, which uses these rules.
The whole definition of an abstention or recusal is "my vote should not
matter". If we do not want to allow this kind of abstentions, then we need
to not allow abstentions at all and require people to vote -1 instead.
Recording a 0 and actually treating it exactly like a -1 does not make
sense.
