Oh, I think the comment I am responding to is quite bad, but I don’t think in terms of pure conceptual content, saying “I wonder if X” and “X” is that different. In either case, downvoting, then asking for more evidence seems like a reasonable thing to do (and I think is better than going up to the meta level and talking about whether the comment was phrased the right way, which I think is generally not super productive).
It’s plausible you are reacting to a different social context than I am. When I responded to the comment, the comment was at −6 karma.
