I should say that I don’t know anyone from LW IRL and am sometimes more worried about accidentally violating norms. Anywhere other than LW I’d be confident that doing this kind of thing would be seen as a social faux-pas.
Obviously I’d like to think that LW would not have this issue. On the other hand I know that I’m communicating with humans so social reactions don’t always work like we’d want them to.
Edit: actually I’m not sure arrogant is the right word—more like just weird to write it up if your findings confirm the original claim, I don’t think I’ve seen this norm practiced in general.
I’m more thinking of perceptions.
