Not at all. The foundation can always tell arbcom that they need to do more to show community consensus.
ArbCom's decisions come after very careful consideration by very smart people. If they ask the Foundation (nicely, as David notes) to make the developers do something, it will happen. Why would the Foundation refuse? They may come back and say "show community consensus", as you say, but it is extremely unlikely that ArbCom will make a decision that does not reflect consensus. It would *be* shown, and in the end, what they ask for will be done.
