Thank you for your authoritative reading of WG consensus.  If the

I could have sworn that the process WRT a WG Draft was that it was
changed only by direction of the Chair(s) as a result of the
determination of WG consensus, rather than at the whim of the editor.
Maybe a different process?

-10.  All of it.
