I … don’t think that line of thinking almost ever applies to me. If the topic interests me and/or there’s something about the post that piques my desire to discuss, it almost always turns out that there are others with similar willingness. At the very least, the OP usually engages to some extent.
There are very few, and perhaps zero, cases where crafting or even evaluating an existing contract is less effort than just reading and responding AND I see enough potential to expend the contract effort but not the read/reply effort.
In addition, the contract doesn’t get me out of the effort to read/respond, it just gives reason to believe that others will do so as well. It’s overall strictly more effort than just taking the risk sometimes.
