EDIT: Except for the part about posting an anonymized summary report on LW. It’s entirely reasonable to have outside advisors and supervisors (in the sense of “well, if the thing’s as good as I say it’ll be, then I have no reason to want to hide”). However, it’s silly to pretend that the house grants LW any kind of oversight, or specifically seeks LW’s approval—I posted here because I thought LW would be a) mildly interested and b) would, in exchange for the mild interestingness be willing to provide some solid, concrete criticism, but that’s pretty much as far as it goes.
This is all generally sensible. +1
