suggesting that they provide some additional disclaimers about the nature of the recommendation.
I most certainly wouldn’t suggest that, I would suggest that they cease recommending both of these organisations, with the caveat that Cosecha is the worse of the two and first in line for being dropped.

As far as I can tell, nothing in your post or subsequent comments warrant that conclusion. If the issue is making sensitive recommendations seem like the opinion of EA, then better caveating can solve that issue. If the issue is that the charities are in fact ineffective, then you haven’t provided any direct evidence of this, only the indirect point that political charities are often ineffective.
I’d find it hard to believe that there is something problematic in transmitting a recommendation along with your epistemic status with regards to the recommendation in a post. It seems like 80K could do a better job of transmitting the epistemic status of the recommendation, but that’s not an argument against recommendation the charities to begin with.

Where is the direct evidence that Cosecha is highly effective?
