Thinking back, I only started searching for “rationality” after I’d already come across LW and was trying to figure out how I felt about hanging around with people who showed such an intense focus on that word.
It’s non-obvious, to say it mildly, that the type of person who would be an asset here are people who go around Googling “rationality” in the first place.
Being the first hit for “religion evidence” or “nutrition evidence” or similar searches could well be a more desirable optimization.
