There are few dissputes over consensus these days because generaly it is defined. Or do you want to see what would happen if a buracrat passed an admin at 69% or failed them at 81%?
Dammit, it's not a vote. Or if it is, let's call it that. I would be perfectly happy to see someone with 90% fail it was 9 pokemon newbies in favour and Jimbo Wales against. Similarly in the reverse case.
Doesn't seem to happen on WP:RFA so nothinbg something we need concern ourselves with in this case
And if you don't like the decision made by the discussion closer, there should be a mechanism to reopen the discussion. Administrator discretion zones my arse, if there is genuine dissent with the outcome, then it should be discussed until an agreement is reached.

First I'm being told that long running debate is a bad idea and now I'm being told we should keep reopening discussions. It would appear there is a lack of consensus on this issue (which is just the way I like it but no matter).
