Fair enough. I think that’s my actual objection—it’s intentionally obfuscated what’s happening here, and my complaints that specifics matter are ignored. For topics like this (where there’s a lot of social uncertainty and an unclear equilibrium between multiple opposing desires), you need to generalize from multiple worked examples, not from first principles.
Like in the comments of the other post, I feel like you misunderstand what’s happening here but I don’t feel like trying to unpack.
