If VfD doesn't have the consensus support of the community, then you should have no problem getting support to have the process stopped. Why don't you try?
I do have support to have it stopped. But it would likely take the support of a majority of admins to actually stop the process.
Anything that gets deleted off VfD has the consensus support of those who vote.
None, most things that get deleted off VfD have at least 60% support among those who vote. Some have even less than this, though.
If you don't vote, you have no right to complain. Same in VfD as it is in real-life elections.
My right to complain is not limited because I don't vote. I have a right to complain about anything I want.
But to point out the ridiculousness of your argument, if the US government ran 30 polls a day on whether or not to enact 30 random laws, anyone who didn't vote would have no right to complain about the law.
It's stupid, we shouldn't be having 30 polls a month, let alone 30 a day. Unlike the US government, "Wikipedia is not a democracy." ([[Wikipedia:Survey Guidelines]]) It's certainly not a direct democracy, and the lunacy of the VfD system shows quite well just how impractical and inefficient a direct democracy can be.

...so it doesn't go your way, and therefore it is impractical and inefficient. Geez, I'd hate to see how it'd be if our politicians ever acted upon this logic...
