Chairs who judge consensus by looking at the room aren't following IETF process--consensus is judged on the mailing list.  Hums are useful for figuring out why we _don't_ have consensus, and for _getting_ to consensus, but if you were to judge consensus by hums or a show of hands, then you'd be taking a vote, wouldn't you?

Meetecho has a ‘hum’ button, which throws ‘hmmmmmm’ into the jabber room for the WG. I did see it used, once.
