I think I agree with this in many cases but am skeptical of such a norm when the requests are related to criticism of the post or arguments as to why a claim it makes is wrong. I think I agree that the specific request to not respond shouldn’t ideally make someone more likely to respond to the rest of the post, but I think that neither should it make someone less likely to respond.
