Does anyone really object to the idea of admins responding to a request for
admin help by editing a fully protected page in accordance with talkpage
consensus?

If there is talk page consensus, does the page really still need to be fully
protected?
There may be consensus on one issue but disagreement over another. Say
the subject of a protected article dies. Obviously there will be
consensus that the article needs to reflect this (not that it's
sensible to take the time to see whether there's consensus there or
not) but the dispute that lead to protection may still be ongoing.
Extreme example I know, but this *kind* of thing happens. It's why we
have {{editprotected}}.
