This is interesting if true. With respect to this paper in particular, I don’t really get why anyone would advise the authors not to publish it. It doesn’t seem like it would affect CSER’s funding, since as I understand it (maybe I’m wrong) they don’t get much EA money and it’s hard to see how it would affect FHI’s funding situation. The critiques don’t seem to me to be overly personal, so it’s difficult to see why publishing it would be overly risky.

Why “if true”? Why would Joey misrepresent his own experiences?
