The idea is that an overwhelming majority may *indicate* consensus. For RFA, that's taken to mean >80%; 75-80% is at bureaucrat discretion.
Hopefully we have to have trust in the bureacrats when it comes to RFA's that are 75-80% because those are the ones that are normally controversial and pose a real challenge on the decision of whether they should be approved or not. For the most part I trust the bureacrats to make the decision but would have no problem letting them know if I ever disagreed with their decision.
And in practice, this is precisely what happens ;-)
