Some quotes from the CEV document:
Though it's not clear to me how the document would deal with Wei Dai's point in the sibling comment. In the absence of coherence on the question of whether to protect, persecute, or ignore impopular minority groups, does CEV default to protecting them or ignoring them? You might say that as written, it would obviously not protect them, because there was no coherence in favor of doing so; but what if protection of minority groups is a side effect of other measures CEV was taking anyway?
(For what it's worth, I suspect that extrapolation would in fact create enough coherence for this particular scenario not to be a problem.)
Thank you. So, not quite consensus but similarly biased in favor if inaction.
