I encourage you to accede to the tribal wishes and not tell anyone about the idea at least within the tribe and the scope of where lesswrong can claim any influence whatsoever (as you've already agreed). As you say, you don't sound like the sort of person who could be harmed by reading it personally so need not be concerned for your own sake.
It seems like it would be easy to predict an individual's reaction to the thing by looking for correlated reactions between that and some other things from people who have seen it all, and then seeing how a given innocent reacts to those other things.
I bet some pretty strong patterns would emerge, and we could predict reactions to the thing. I do not think that protecting people from harm now is a true objection, for it could be dealt with by identifying vulnerable people and not making the whole topic such forbidden fruit.
