I also want to separately add that part of my frustration here (and the “can-kicking” part i mention) is that I worry this is just going to be weaponized as a reason to keep EA and LW glued together, even as obvious cracks develop. That would be fine—if we had a democracy—but we don’t. So at some point glue is a weapon for those in the community with de facto control to keep trudging forward without having to account for the increasing differences in moral views of those within.
