I think it can still provide value if the actual scenario at hand is so complex and fraught that conversations about it end up mostly fruitless (as I think is the case here). At least it can provide you with some mental handholds and suppor

It can allow you to deduce something, depending on the answer. If we want to establish whether scenario A is fair use or not, and we all agree that A is "worse" (regarding fair use status) than some other scenario B, then if we al

I'm not nearly knowledgeable enough to have an opinion either way, but that connection/opposition between autism and schizophrenia has been pondered by more qualified people. See e.g. https://slatestarcodex.com/201

I don't want to strawman, but I also can't read your position as anything other than "if the risk can't be reduced to literally 0, it's not worth trying to reduce/avoid increasing it at all". There are obv

I call this the Reheating Coefficient: how good does something taste when reheated compared to how good it did originally? Stews can sometimes achieve even >1 RC. I find lasagna is really good as well. And then you have stuff like fries
