That's a great point. I suspect though, the critique applies to decision making by consensus more broadly.
Decisions made by consensus are not necessarily the optimal strategy (as defined by efficacy to achieve targets). This method simply reflects that.
However, the benefit of this method is that all participants are forced to be more rigorous about why they hold certain beliefs, and then making an attempt to aggregate those preferences to drive an outcome.
