Eliezer is arguing about one view of the Singularity, though there are others. This is one reason I thought to include http://yudkowsky.net/singularity/schools on the wiki. If leaders/proponents of the other two schools could acknowledge this model Eliezer has described of there being three schools of the Singularity, I think that might lend it more authority as you are describing.
Actually, I might prefer not to use the term 'Singularity' at all, precisely because it has picked up so many different meanings. If a name is needed for the event we're describing and we can't avoid that, use 'intelligence explosion'.
Seconded. One of the many modern connotations of 'Singularity' is 'Geek Apocalypse'.
Which is happening, like, a good couple of years afterwards.
Intelligence explosion does away with that, and seems to nail the concept much better anyway.
