I like political debate. Always have, really. Getting one that isn’t built on cheap shots, anecdote-as-data, and other such cheese is very difficult, and I’ve usually found it to be greatly rewarding when it does happen. I want to investigate my political beliefs with actual data, and that’s amazingly hard to do normally. On top of that, I expect it’ll be great fun to watch “Bayesians cannot disagree” run into that particular brick wall, instead of the universal stuff like “There’s no evidence that God exists”.
It’s not the highest priority around, just happens to be one that I’d like to see, and one that seemed worth a few comments.

Ah, OK. Sure, agreed that it’s worth a few comments. I interpreted “primary goal” to imply a higher priority than you seem to have meant it.
Oh, sorry. The primary goal of making the comment, not the primary goal of my life.
