5 and 10 do feel like the weakest ones/the ones most likely to earn a rewrite that manages to strengthen them substantially.

It is specifically because of an anticipation that users like Zack would immediately and enthusiastically leap to recalcitrant strawmanning that I felt I had to post this wholesale as a complete list rather than ask “hey, I’ve got like eight of these I feel good about and two more I need help with; whaddyathink, LW?”
Like, what would’ve allowed a discussion on the merits of 5 and 10 to productively proceed is the prereq of enough-of-something-like-5-and-10 already being in the water (plus maybe a healthy dose of 8 and 9), and I was not at all confident we have that.
I for sure think that a conversation with Julia and Vaniver and Scott, etc., on how to create the better thing that 5 and 10 were trying to point to, would be lovely, and would work.
