Huh, I feel mixed about this. I want there to be ways and places to just talk and not have an all things considered opinions and not be too strongly judged for it (and I know some people hold to a “what’s the best thing this person has done/said” standard rather than “what’s the quality of the average thing they said”), for epistemics and probably because it’s sensible in a bunch of ways, but it would also be confusing to me if people’s behavior on the public internet didn’t give evidence of the kind of employee they are or their views in ways that might matter? Maybe we’re just litigating how much of a grace buffer there should be (where maybe we agree it should be pretty big).
