Yes, the “here’s why Quinn is wrong about CooperateBot being a troll submission” comments were valuable, so I don’t regret provoking them. Presumably if my comment had said “players” instead of “trolls” from the outset, it would have been ignored for being inoffensive and content-free.
But provoking a few good comments was a happy accident from my perspective. I will avoid casual use of the word “troll” on this site, unless I have a specific purpose in mind.
