It is a plus that some people are not worrying about other people’s feelings. Worrying about other people’s feelings is a liability for truthseeking.
(To which the counterargument is humans are humans, conversation does not proceed better when people feel threatened or attacked, we have to work with who we are, and that means perhaps putting some thought into how people feel.)
If the counterargument is that humans are humans… then, well, we must become more. And isn’t this the place for that, particularly on the particular axis of truth-seeking?
Yes, of course—while not forgetting that we should not create systems that only function if we have already acheived that future state. (While also being wary of incentivizing fragility, etc. As always, best to try to solve for the equilibrium.)
