I think this is a big deal, unfortunately. I try to talk about EA very carefully when talking to people who’re “A first”, but people can sense any implicit criticism a mile off. It’s really hard to avoid some variant of “So you think I’ve been wasting my time, then?”
Strangely, “E first” people may be easier to reach because they’re less likely to be already invested in something.
