Strong disagree. There’s no such thing as “drama” that is distinct from important content. This drama is there because the things discussed are important to EA’s impact on the world, perhaps more than most other things on the forum.
Perhaps, although I do worry about the tractability of a lot of these disputes and I suspect that often leads to the expected value being much lower than you might expect.
IMO I disagree here. I think that the drama here is important for EA, but I don’t believe this is the norm at all. It took a vast amount of work to get to this point where drama reliably points to something important.
Most often, drama tends to bikeshed and ultimately not be that important relative to the conversation going on.
