I mean the claim that "we" have voted for developing the feature,
obviously. If you have no evidence for this claim, say so.

I would also suggest, more generally, that a strategy of asserting
that consensus was reached wanting the feature, when this is strongly
not the case, is unlikely to convince people - particularly when the
discussion is about strong evidence of consensus *against*.

If you're so sure there's strong consensus in favour of it, I suggest
we run a series of polls, similar to the de:wp poll, which I'm sure
will show that lots of people want the feature.
