I enjoyed this and am considering doing similar posts myself.
One thing I’ve noticed is that the responses seem like they may fall into clusters. I get the impression there’s one cluster of “doesn’t feel elite and is frustrated with EA for not being accommodating” and a very different cluster of “very worried that EA is being too friendly, and not being properly disagreeable where it matters”. I don’t have a good sense on exactly what these clusters are. I could imagine it being the case that they are distinct, and if so, recognizing this would be very valuable. Perhaps they could be optimized separately, for instance.
