Your comment and the response from u/unholiness both make really good points. The response comment I boil down to, know your audience and when this can be used effectively.

This is something I think about almost daily, probably not healthy in itself, but I am really glad I read your comment which articulated why this writing style can work against the author. And the comment from unholiness which demonstrates how online discussions are hostile by default and almost warrant this writing style by default, although there are other steps an author could use to accomplish their disclaimer
