Getting a consensus on fairness is an illusion. More like delusion, actually. The only way to get anything accomplished is disabuse the designers of the notion that fairness can be achieved.

Or at least to disabuse them of the notion that a full consensus can be reached as to the fairness of a particular solution.

You could have a solution which the majority thinks is more fair than the current situation (it might not be easy but it isn't impossible). You could certainly find a solution that the designers think is fair.

Do you think the designers shouldn't even consider the idea of fairness?
