That's pretty much how consensus based decision making is meant to work. You keep arguing until one side stops, either because they're convinced by the others arguments, they've reached an acceptable compromise, or they simply don't think it's important enough to worry about.
"Is meant to work", or, "ends up working in practice"?
The problem, of course, is that you can end up with decisions biased pretty heavily towards people with obsessive personalities and waaaaaaay too much time on their hands.
