I was writing a LessWrong post on what I called “generators” and “evaluators” of ideas a few years ago, but never finished it. “Evaluators” and “assessors” seem similar. The main difference was that I didn’t postulate that “generators” are disagreeable, unlike your “disagreeables”.
I like that naming setup. I considered using the word “evaluators”, but decided against it because I’ve personally been using “evaluator” to mean something a bit distinct.

This post by the cognitive scientist Hugo Mercier may also be of relevane: “Why assholes are more likely to be wrong”.
