Probably didn't apply to Bay of Pigs but something that's somewhat distinct is a desire for consensus.
It's somewhat a cultural thing (where culture can mean country/company/team). But there can be situations where someone (and it may actually be multiple people) have misgivings about an apparent consensus but feel that unanimity is more important than having a knock-down argument over some minor point. This isn't even always the wrong call--again doesn't apply to Bay of Pigs.
