The exact wording in the guidelines that I’m adhering to is: > Have curious conversation There is no guideline directing me to make my comments relevant to the majority of HN readers. This is probably the most narrowly-focused HN comment I’ve ever made in a decade, though!

That’s the essence of what every HN comment should be.
