Paradoxically the link to the archive only provides L0 (thesis), and no L1-3 (critique, counter-critique, counter-response). This is unfortunate because Eliezer manages to criticize priests, chemists, academic reviewers, mainstream media and EAs all in one post, and it would have been interesting to have their take too.
As far as I can tell the post backs up its thesis with anecdotal evidence but no quantitative data, so let’s not update too much.
About “maybe not X”:
Maybe these deep back and forth happen more than Eliezer thinks?
Maybe we have limited criticism capacity and it’s already all used up on high priority stuff?
Maybe most people don’t have anything meaningful to add so telling them to criticize more isn’t useful?
