In reality, there is no such thing as "consensus" in any expert field, not even in maths or physics, not even when it comes to fundamental theorums, let alone in leading edge or new fields of study. So, if someone claims there is "consensus" among "9 out of 10" or "97%" or similar, it's a tell that there is something else in play.
