Ran, I just checked, and you don't seem to be a 6man chair. We generally ask chairs, not involved participants to judge WG consensus and ADs to judge IETF consensus. So, I think what you're saying boils down to you disagree with Eliot because you believe his comments would reduce clarity. You believe others within the WG and outside the WG are likely to agree with you. That's all fine and is valuable to contribute. However, I don't think it promotes open and honest technical discussion when participants try to call consensus. Thanks for considering my input.
