I’m just going to point out that I’m surprised that this comment of mine has not only been voted up, but voted up quite strongly, considering it rests in a nest of ‘hidden’ comments. I fully expected this comment to rest somewhere in the neighborhood of −2 karma.
I recall being surprised too, back when I saw your comment (then at +6). Usually I expect that sort of comment to be negative.
Mind you I upvoted it myself because you nailed it. You were a little bit of a jerk in the comment but I thought it was entirely appropriate to the circumstance—and balanced by at least agreeing with Gwern in the current battle.
