Antonio, To stick to the case here, I suggest you take a look at eg. Merriam-Webster's online dictionary for the definition of the term "consensus". It says clearly that it is the "general agreement" or "the judgment arrived at by most of those concerned". Not "when everyone agrees".
And for that matter, you were not even on the list yet by the last time these matters reached consensus. When you stick you neck out, be sure to be right, mate. It's kinda like writing technical documentation. Accuracy determines quality.

Yet again we see the PDML being dictated to and dominated by a few old timers. Given recent events neither grayworld nor you nor frank, tann, bob and quite a few others are in any position to draw up such rules as you were the main abusers. I have not experienced the silent majority against me, just a few vocal jerks such as yourself.
