The “intelligent” qualification could mean just about anything, and sort functions as an applause light on LW, and the “social” part sounds kind of collectivist. Besides that, this is just called having a low time preference, and is a common self-help concept. I don’t see any need to label this morality.
You’re right, I did stop reading carefully toward the end because the Kantian stuff looked like it was just a side note. I’ve now read it carefully, but I still don’t see the significance.

I didn’t downvote, but you didn’t address the crypto-Kantian angle at all. So it seems like you stopped reading too soon.
