I obviously think there are many important disanalogies, but even if there weren’t, rhetoric like this seems like an excellent way to discourage OpenAI employees from ever engaging with the alignment community, which seems like a pretty bad thing to me.
Thank you for causing me to reconsider. I should have said “other OpenAI employees”. I do not intend to disengage from the alignment community because of critical rhetoric, and I apologize if my comment came across as a threat to do so. I am concerned about further breakdown of communication between the alignment community and AI labs where alignment solutions may need to be implemented.
I don’t immediately see any other reason why my comment might have been inappropriate, but I welcome your clarification if I am missing something.

I’d agree if somebody else wrote what you wrote but I don’t think it’s appropriate for you as an OpenAI employee to say that.
