I'm surprised you found my "success creating rationalists" Q confusing.

Here's the entirety of your original question:

How do you characterize the success of your attempt to create rationalists?

The precisions that you added here would certainly have helped make things clearer.

I thought the implications of "success" in the context of "create rationalists" were clear. Or, that a person setting out to generate implications would produce a stochastic approximation of the ones that interested me. (And I was also interested in the shape of that approximation.)
