If the supreme commander of the Dragon Army is inclined to spend so much energy against a few abrasive critics on LW, imagine how much energy will have to be exerted once the War begins in earnest.
Or will the Barracks be a secret location?
More seriously, a major driving force behind both the post and the comments is transparency—people who are interested in refining their model of me have a much better model now than they might’ve two weeks ago, including where I draw the line and several of my different modes when dealing with things I think are unfair (e.g. quite different styles of response to 182blargl and handoflixue). I’m pretty “pro” being able-to-be-predicted, and I generally endorse my stands even though there are 3-6 places where I think I got marginally too heated, so this is decent data.

I think the answer is “all the energy.”
