If Luke wants to say he just ignored comments when he trumpeted the success (like a good Olympian) -- fine.
If he wants to invent stories about how seeing my request would have required “spending all day re-checking the comment threads on old LW posts” or how it would have been difficult see my comment in the massive thicket of 3 threads with mine at the top, etc etc etc—then he’s making things up, which is not fine.
Yes, I can think of someone who warranted a Confessor zapping.
I think there’s a reasonable middle ground between fire-and-forget posting that you’re pushing, and the obsessive checking of posts that luke (very clearly) hyperbolized.
