Consensus doesn't require unanimity, but it does require fairly considering and trying to resolve each objection---which is exactly what the list records show didn't happen here.

IETF doesn't even have a membership mechanism, so if voting were allowed then there wouldn't even be the most basic protection against votes being bought. ---D. J. Bernstein
