Complete tangent: Most studies I’m familiar with find that intellectual skills and communications skills are very correlated (highly g-loaded) in the general population. Your phrasing using “lacking” and “inverse proportion” could actually be interpreted as agreeing with that in a circuitous fashion, but the rest of the tone makes me think your “lacking” was an editing mistake, you meant the two skills are inversely correlated (apologies if I misunderstood your intent). But you may be right that HN appeals to the outliers whose communication skills/maturity/desire for internet points don’t match the general population.
