Who cares what consensus is? What matters is what is right. Edit waring has it's uses. For some reason it seems to be an effective way of increaseing the number of citations.
The problem with believing that being right is paramount is that it tends to shut out other views which may be just as right.
No, that is the problem with being wrong. It is those who are wrong that want to shut out the views that may be right. That is how you get gulags, political prisoners, censorship, whole nations that are gulags of cheap captive labor where emigation and escape are prohibitted.
