I do wish I was able to find an official style guide that made this point clear, though. Do you know of one? I couldn’t find it in the Chicago guide. It’s sort of explained here, though it doesn’t make the detailed claims that you do. I’ve switched my practice mostly because my intuitions agreed with yours when I read your comments, but that could be just status quo bias and me being used to saying “The Singularity Institute” until recently.
I’ve just made a $50 donation to the Institute in question. That kind of updating speed deserves an equally quick reward.
Thanks!
Now keep an eye on me so you can make sure I’m not just signaling rationality but actually changing my behavior. :)
Oh don’t worry, I will. :-)
