Thanks as always to Zac for continuing to engage on things like this.
Tiny nit for my employer: should probably read “including some* MIRI employees”
like any org, MIRI is made up of people that have significant disagreements with one another on a wide variety of important matters.
More than once I’ve had it repeated to me that ‘MIRI endorses y’, and tracked the root of the claim to a lack of this kind of qualifier. I know you mean the soft version and don’t take you to be over-claiming; unfortunately, experience has shown it’s worth clarifying, even though for most claims in most contexts I’d take your framing to be sufficiently clear.
