I understand your first point about sales and "general consensus".

The second half contains, again, the logical fallacy: you compared the sales factual content - they exist, in a certain amount - with something very different in reviews - their accuracy - and said that sales are more objective because their number is.

The sales number being objective has nothing to do with the correlation between sales and quality being good or being better than in reviews. If I know 3 people who think that the earth is flat, the objectiveness of the number 3 has nothing to do with the objectiveness of their belief.

Reviews cannot be accurate or inaccurate, because that implies that there is a universal value set to which all games are trying to adhere.

There isn't.
