Your Definition
A precise-sounding figure which at first sight appears impressively close to total unanimity but on closer inspection is obviously meaningless because of selection bias. Extensively used by a snake oil salesman or confidence trickster to suggest that the [prospective] ill-informed customer would be ridiculed by their peers if they failed to make the purchase. Also used ironically to suggest precision when in fact both [the speaker] and the listener know that the figure is a stab [in the dark], such as sales estimates.
