I know this approach isn’t as effective for xrisk, but still, it’s something I like to use.
This sentence has the grammatical structure of acknowledging a counterargument and negating it—“I know x, but y”—but the y is “it’s something I like to use”, which does not actually negate the x.
This is a kind of thing I suspect results from a process like: someone writes out the structure of negation, out of wanting to negate an argument, but then finds nothing stronger to slot into where the negating argument is supposed to be.
