As an experiment and because I am interested in a more in depth conversation on this topic, I pledge to respond to every comment on this post for a month. If you want to make a similar pledge, please do so as a response to this comment.
Edit: Some comments don’t seem like they’re worth responding to, so I won’t respond to those. I guess I’m going against my pledge here, but I feel that not responding to literally every comment is still consistent with the spirit of the pledge. If anyone disagrees or would like me to respond to anything in particular, I would be be happy to do so.
Pledges for ongoing discussion

I think I’ll actually write this up as a corollary to For Better Commenting, Avoid PONDS.
Cool, I’ll check it out!
Here it is! Thanks for the inspiration.
