Doesn't that continue the trend of discussing the pens, not the writing? Ie, following your suggestion, effects are not discussed at all -- with lack of visibility and accountability, much as that article hints at. The world is nuanced. We cannot talk about tech without acknowledging what the tech does. And we cannot work on tech without being responsible for that tech's results when it works to fulfil its function. If someone works for an arms manufacturer, they are part of the system that causes gun deaths. Someone may be okay with that, and I am not arguing otherwise, but I am arguing it should be a conscious and acknowledged choice: to be part of that system but rationalise it away shows a worrying lack of personal ethos.
