I’ve already seen plenty of comment here on just how awkward this post is to be so early in the Sequences, and how it would turn people off, so I won’t comment on that.
So early in the sequences? It would seem to be worse later in what we now call the sequences. At the time this was written it was just a casual post on a blog Eliezer had only recently started posting on. Perhaps the main error is that somehow someone included it in an index when they were dividing the stream of blog posts into ‘sequences’ for reference.
