Good points.

Also, I think that at least some researchers are less likely to discuss their estimates publicly if they’re leaning towards shorter timelines and a discontinuous takeoff, which subjects the public discourse on the topic to a selection bias.

Why do you think this?

EDIT: Ah, Matthew got to it first.
