The paper aims at clarifying some misunderstandings about the consensus problem. These misunderstandings prevent consensus from being considered as it should be, i.e., a fundamental paradigm in the context of fault-tolerant distributed systems, not only from a theoretical point of view, but also from a practical point of view. Six frequent misunderstandings are discussed.
