Honestly, in your example, the 10th person should leave. Not because they're wrong - they're right - but because a company is not a family, you don't have to be there if you disagree with everything that's being done. Let them try and fail; it's better for everyone involved than having this level of internal disagreement.

(This works for our industry. May not work for most people on the planet, for whom abandoning a job is quite literally life-threatening. But that's an entirely separate topic.)

Not sure why you're being downvoted, in many cases this is the best solution. At the very least you can start looking for a plan B if you think your company is dysfunctional. Better to leave early, than to burn out while clenching your teeth through months of pointless meetings (or to be fired for being a jerk if you eventually crack).

This does not even work in the industry. There are serious costs to changing jobs, from such simple things like daily commute, through job searches down to salaries and temporary availability. (Hiring is seasonal.)
