The first isn't. Just because you agree with the majority, doesn't mean you are an NPC.
Take the wheel for example. Am I an NPC for agreeing that the wheel is better designed as a round object rather than a square? That's the implication this individual was trying to give - that given all of the data available, that leaves little room for speculation or doubt, I am allegedly an NPC for agreeing with the data provided thus far.
However, I am still open to other data that might refute any given claim. That's what it means to be objective.
