Yes, these are good points.

What I was saying above is that if Eliezer wants to defer to other SIAI staff then we should seek justification from them rather than from him. Maybe they have good reasons for thinking that it's a good idea for him to do FAI research despite the issue that you mention.

I understand and I did vote your comment up. The point is relevant even if not absolutely so in this instance.
