This is a different type of problem. OP is talking about people saying there is a consensus, when actually there's a lot of disagreement. You're talking about times where there was (some kind of) a consensus, but that consensus was wrong.
That's not clear to me from reading the comment. passive_fist, can you clarify?
In all 3 cases I described except the last, it wasn't a consensus at all, but a percieved consensus within a subset of the community.
I apologize then, that wasn't how I read it. When you said "huge clique" and "widely thought," I thought you were saying that the majority of the field falls into those groups.
