For Rational Animations, there’s no problem if you do that, and I generally don’t see drawbacks.
Perhaps one thing to be aware of is that some of the articles we’ll animate will be slightly adapted. Sorting Pebbles and The Power of Intelligence are exactly like the original. The Parable of The Dagger has deletions of words such as “replied” or “said” and adds a short additional scene at the end. The text of The Hidden Complexity of Wishes has been changed in some places, with Eliezer’s approval, mainly because the original has some references to other articles. In any case, when there are such changes, I write it in the LW post accompanying the videos.
