You’re fine, in my opinion. Your post title is eight words. If people don’t want to engage with the question you asked, that decision consumed two seconds of their time.
While I understand and respect why people don’t want to devote resources to charity selection within causes they view as relatively low impact, I think it’s possible to apply importance, tractability and/or neglectedness to some extent to donation opportunities within most cause areas. And I think it’s good to get people thinking more about those criteria, even if they are not thinking about them in the context of an cause area EA views as high-impact.
