I don’t consider “the title of this post is almost completely uninformative” to be a minor issue, nor do I consider “it doesn’t signal in-group enough” to be an issue at all. I know the author personally and she’s probably way more “in-group” than I am, I’d just prefer to see posts here with more informative titles, especially if they don’t pertain as directly to the main topics of the site.
(I was wondering if there was going to be a Big Rationalist Lesson at the end, since the title didn’t tell me it was just a scooter review.)
I agree that the title was uninformative and I support your right to feel its not quite central cannon content. At the same time I found the concept that it points at in terms of blind spots was valuable to me. Even with an unclear title.

I think the Big Rationalist Lesson is “what adjustment to my circumstances am I not making because I Should Be Able To Do Without?”
