That’s the one, that being the one specific thing I’ve been talking about all the way through.
Good, that had been my impression.
Independently of anything that Vladmir may have written it is my observation that the ‘TDT-like’ stuff was mostly relevant to the question “is it dangerous for people to think X?” Once that has been established the rest of the decision making, what to do after already having reached that conclusion, was for most part just standard unadorned human thinking. From what I have seen (including your references to reputation self sabotage by SIAI) you were more troubled by the the latter parts than the former.
Even if you do care about the more esoteric question “is it dangerous for people to think X?” I note that ‘garbage in, garbage out’ applies here as it does elsewhere.
(I just don’t like to see TDT unfairly maligned. Tarnished by association as it were.)
