I generally agree with you, but I felt this one post was much more interesting than your run of the mill "Why I quit ...". He talks about the decision process and how he tried to make a decision in a systematic way. I think that's interesting since making decisions about your own life is often hard and people mostly don't even attempt a rational approach here, they just follow whatever the strongest impulse they had. Most authors of the "How I quit" posts just announce they quit and then add some more or less coherent after the fact justifications. I'm not necessarily saying that this author's methodology is great, or that the goal of making life decisions in such rational, principled manner is even attainable, but it's still interesting that he tried and what he writes about it.
