Good point. It definitely does vary person-to-person, so I probably should have used individual terminology instead of “culture”.
I haven’t updated all the way in that direction, though. I wouldn’t be surprised if certain cliques, subcultures, and cultures show significant variance in how strong each of their 4 filters are on average. I’d bet that LW is outside the mean, but we could easily be an outlier. We’re too small to push the average for “nerd culture” or anything else very far, and it’s certainly possible that, after correcting for confounders, it would turn out not to be a cultural thing at all.
