First of all, thank you for reporting who you’ve deferred to in different ways in specific terms. Second, thank you for putting in some extra effort to not only name this or that person but make your reasoning more transparent and legible.
I respect Matthew because when I read what he writes, it feels like I tend to agree with half of the points he makes and disagree with the other half. It’s what makes him interesting. While some are more real and some are only perceived, there are barriers to posting on the EA Forum, like an expectation of too high a burden of rigour, that have people post on social media or other forums off of this one when they can’t resist the urge to express a novel viewpoint to advance progress in EA. Matthew is one of the people I think of when I wish a lot of insightful people were more willing to post on the EA Forum.
I don’t agree with all of what you’ve presented from Matthew here or what you’ve said yourself. I might come back to specify which parts I agree and disagree with later when I’ve got more time. Right now, though, I just want to positively reinforce your writing a comment that is more like the kind of feedback from others I’d like to see more of in EA.
