Thanks Neel, and especially for your honest self reflection. I’m not confident that FTX failing means it was likely to fail in expectation, so I think we need to be careful about saying “because this failed it was wrong ever to think it wouldn’t, and any argument built on that premise was stupid.”
I’m also pretty worried about EAs tearing into each other ATM without the full facts (or even with them, tbh). So I was aiming for the tone you mention, and I hope we can see more of this in the discourse (albeit that many people are legitimately very, very angry at the moment).
