This is true, but its a two way street. Who determines what "consensus" actually entails? Ideally it should include a thorough weighing of pros and cons of any suggested change by a robust group of individuals who are knowledgeable enough to formulate a meaningful opinion on the subject, whatever it may be.

So what I'm saying is that, even if the proposal is declined and the outcome is favorable to you personally, there will still be people claiming the consensus mechanism in Core is "broken."

Regardless, I personally don't think the change will go through due to the very thing you are talking about: lack of consensus. Besides, there are obviously workarounds being employed as we speak, so such a change isn't completely necessary, IMHO.
