No, what I'm saying is that the original text of the policy *BEFORE* I send my proposal to amend it was:

"majority" (not clarifying what is majority)

My proposal added the clarification that "majority" is understood as "over 50%".

The staff was already interpreting the policy like that, because usually when you say majority, you mean more than 
half. Do you agree on that?

The community decided that my proposal to add the explicit "footnote" to clarify "majority" is understood as more than 
50%, agreed on that, so consensus was declared and the policy was amended to add that footnote.

Again, if you (or anyone) think this is wrong, you need to come to the LACNIC policy mailing list and discuss it there 
and even submit a policy proposal. I think I've provided sufficient clarifications here about that and responding again 
and again on the same will not be useful for the NANOG community.

    I'm afraid you have already stated:

     > *“Mainly” is understood to mean more than 50%.

    So, do you mean "majority" can mean 50% or 40% according to your
    discretion?

    Are you, now, saying unreasonable request of "50%" is the requirement
    and "40%" is not enough?
