determining genuine consensus should *not* be given a crutch to lean
on. Any decision that can only be justified on the basis of a
numerical count is not a good decision...

Who in this case are you asking to do the "determining genuine consensus"?
Why should I accept their resoning over that of someone else? You see
the problem.
