Main answer: this post is aimed at a lower level than you are at, and I intentionally did not unpack some of the more advanced questions
I wish there was some kind of disclaimer or hint near the beginning of the text that this is the case, so I would know to read it with this in mind (or skip it altogether as not written for me).
What would you want such a disclaimer or hint to look like?
(I am concerned that if a post says something like “this post is aimed at low-level people who don’t yet have a coherent foundational understanding of goodness and values” then the set of people who actually continue reading will not be very well correlated with the set of people we’d like to have continue reading.)
Maybe something like “This post presents a simplified version of my ideas, intended as an introduction. For more details and advanced considerations, please see such and such posts.”
