I personally prefer writing that gets into the technical weeds and focuses on convincing the reader of the plausibility of their perspective, instead of the absolute truth of it (which is why I listed Scott Aaronson’s paper first; I’ve read many of his other papers and blogs, including on the topic of free will, and really enjoy them).
