I definitely didn’t intend to communicate that it should be considered cheap to leave LessWrong (that’s why the next sentence says “I think LessWrong is worth a lot to a lot of people”).
I just meant to communicate that in terms of something like “basic needs” that a person might experience, LessWrong is very rarely a necessary component of getting those filled (which is an important threshold as there exist threats that people face that do threaten your basic needs more, and which hence make sense to be engaged with differently).
Sorry, I mean, my next sentence is literally saying “I think LessWrong is worth a lot to a lot of people”, which seems sufficient to pre-empt that misunderstanding.
I think that section as written is communicating the thing I want to communicate. Of course I could do a general editing pass to make it clearer, but I am not like, seeing anything particularly wrong with what I have written.
