Wait, so now it's perfectly fine to have *no consensus whatsoever* to do something like disable page creation, but to undo it we need even more overwhelming consensus? I didn't realize there was such a first-mover advantage to Wikipedia processes these days.

IIRC it was more of a "Jimbo wants this, therefore it's going to be done" advantage, combined with concern that Wikipedia was going to be sued if it turned out too many more dodgy biographies.
