I don't recall ever saying this. Not saying I agree or disagree with it,
but I can forsee a situation were consensus can rather be a "compromise"
Meaning a middle ground is reached on a theoretical issue, and both sides
still feel they are right but instead of regressing to infinity, they
decide to go to debate other issues mutually consented to.
