Fwiw, my role is similar to yours, and granted that LessWrong has a much stronger focus on Alignment, but I currently feel that a very good candidate for the #1 reason that I will fail to steer LW to massive impact is because I’m not and haven’t been an Alignment researcher (and perhaps Oli hasn’t been either, but he’s a lot more engaged with the field than I am).
