This somehow feels like it should be a comment on Armed and Dangerous, rather than a post on Less Wrong; it just doesn’t seem to be making a significant point about rationality that wasn’t already made in a salient place here. (Of course, this is highly subjective.)
Less Wrong seems to have developed a typical style of post different from, say, Overcoming Bias (where these sorts of blog interactions used to fit in very well); it’s become less of a group blog and more of… well, something new, where posts are written to express a new idea, link something previously unknown to the group, synthesize several related ideas, or present a large argumentative piece within an ongoing debate. I think this is a good thing, and I’d prefer it to be the norm...
