no. social-consensus is on the filter side and has been for 15 years since satoshi created them in 2010.
Please be aware there are 2 ways to use the word "consensus" in bitcoin:
Technical- consensus rules are what define bitcoin, as opposed to relay policy for example. Two nodes can have different policy, yet remain in consensus.
Social / non-technical / natural language- social-consensus means that there is wide support and limited dissent for something.
Core devs used to agree that social-consensus is very important in FOSS software development:
Today, Core is breaking social-consensus by pushing this controversial relay policy update- but they are not breaking technical consensus, and neither is knots.
The question is, what changed with the Core dev team?
