I don’t think 11 needs to be a community value. If someone comes in believing in the supernatural, in cryptozoology, UFOs, P = NP, or other ideas that haven’t been scientifically verified, who cares as long as they’re interested in changing their way of modeling the world to be more evidence-based?
Yeah, and that’s the posture you have to take if you want any sort of growth at all. Inevitably, people who’ve been on the path for a while will end up converging on weird ideas that aren’t intuitive to new members, such as, you know, short timelines and alignment difficulty. New members will always arrive believing things that aren’t common in the rest of the community.
