(A large part of the goals of this post is to communicate to people that Oliver considers the cost of accepting information to be very high, and make people aware that they should be careful around Oliver and predict him better on this dimension, not repeating my mistake of expecting him not to do so much worse than a priest of Abadar would.)

Both me and other people at Lightcone have written quite a bit about that. See for example “Can you keep this confidential? How do you know?”
