The OP specifies that the purpose of the discussion is to evaluate methodology, and remains silent on the evaluation of conclusions. I request that the summary you’ve written be edited to reflect this.
I realized just now that the summary could have been taken as “here’s why Yudkowsky was wrong”, while for me it has always been: “here’s people thought about why Yudkowsky could be wrong”.
It is intended purely as a summary, not an endorsement. I will retain point n° 6, but I’ll edit to a more neutral first sentence.
