I think that’s right, but I think that who I cite in this case matters a lot to whether people take it seriously. This is why I chose not to cite Miles or Yudkowsky, though I’m aware that this is academically bad practice. In hindsight, I could have included some quote from Peter Railton but it doesn’t feel right to do this for the sake of adding an authority to the list of citations. Thanks!
