I think that is a good point, and I wish that we had included this in the post!
We approached this mainly from the perspective of a community building work (Tatiana’s main work), which as a meta-EA job is probably the only type of work for which there is such high overlap between “alignment with EA” and “alignment with my organization’s mission.” But you are correct. I can see how there would be a lot less overlap for an organization focused on a specific cause.
