I think you might have a good point regarding legibility. I tend to find myself slightly overagreeable with posts that are presented in a way that conforms to the “EA forum norms” and somewhat rejecting posts with styles that I’m less fond of. In this post, I actually felt more agreeable rather than not at first, not sure why, but less so over time as I just didn’t find my footing and that made me confused. This could be because I never actually read the whole post.
(I notice now that I’ve actually spent more time writing these comments than the time it’d have taken me to read the text… I’m sorry about that! )
