Well, the benefits of promoting rationality have been widely recognized ever since EY published his post on raising the sanity waterline.
But let’s be clear—rationality outreach is not LW outreach. The goal is to spread good ideas from rationality and raise the sanity waterline, not get people to engage with LW necessarily. I myself would like to wait until more of LW 2.0 comes into being, including the newbie section, before inviting newcomers to engage with LW actively.
