Brilliant response, thanks for taking the time to write it up! Realize that the community here is not a fixed quantity. If you lead with high effort comments like this, eventually the community might return the favor. Unfortunately, I don't understand the politics here enough to personally offer any useful critique. If you don't get the feedback you want here, posting a version of this to an Open Thread on Slate Star Codex might start a good conversation.
