Sounds to me like we always have to calculate a social path integral to a level of approximation appropriate to the situation, even in ask culture… If a friend is lactose intolerant and they know I know that, then even in ask culture it would be weird for me to ask if they want some non-vegan ice cream (and they might assume that if I asked, I would be either joking or offering vegan ice cream, not that I was actively stupid) - so I don’t see the option for 0 echos tbh, just an option to agree that coarse approximation of social consequences is totally fine in most situations and as a default and that mistakes are better on the side of oversimplification rather than overthinking it and not interacting at all.
Or some questions like “May I cut your wrists?” seem like they are almost never appropriate, perhaps as a joke between the right kind of people, or meta level sarcasm when judging how much someone is genuinely into the ask culture thingy.. number of echoes can be a fraction sometimes..
So I would imagine that not seeing public comments as needing more social consideration for more diverse audience than DMs is a mistake even in ask culture worth pointing out to people when it could have been formulated with a better escape hatch..
