It sounds like you're saying that everyone needs to agree on the *need*
for a change in order for it to happen. I don't think this is true. I
think that if some people want change, and the rest are accepting of the
change, that is sufficient. We may have this case going on now; people
who were not around for earlier consensus decisions are absolutely
welcome to reopen them and attempt to get a different consensus. Our
social mores and defaults can and must change as the group grows and
changes.
