According to my subjective æsthetic whims, it’s cute and funny to imagine the protagonist as not remembering both author’s names, in accordance with only being a casual formal epistemology fan. (The mentions of casual fandom, family archives, not reading all of chapter 3, &c. make this a short story that happens to be told in the second person, rather than “you” referring to the reader.)
I expected there to be some wordplay on “casual”/”causal” somewhere, but I’m not sure if I saw any. This is obviously a central component of such a post’s value proposition.
