  Of course. The commenter did not affect my vote, but did cause me to spend more time reflecting on it and to post a comment. I mentioned that it was interesting that I paused at all because it shows that the commenter does matter, particularly when (s)he is a prominent figure.

    But this is how they should try to work. Otherwise it quickly turns to ad hominem arguments and some such. (The lack thereof is one of the reasons I like comments on hn)
