Random thought for the day...
...the LCMS structure as conceived by the founders of Synod only works if the members of congregations and the pastors of parishes are self-consciously LUTHERAN, that is, if they are willing to be corrected by and held accountable to the Symbolical Books in doctrine and in practice.

...as the members of congregations, the pastors of parishes, and LCMS synodocrats become less self-consciously LUTHERAN, that is, as they become less willing to be corrected by and held accountable to the Symbolical Books in doctrine and in practice, the LCMS structure as conceived by the founders of Synod is changed to accomodate that decrease in being self-consciously LUTHERAN.
The LCMS structure as conceived by its founders has no synodocrats. Just sayin.
The synodocrats come with the changes in the LCMS structure to accomodate the decrease in being self-consciously LUTHERAN.
