Clippy, why would it maximize paperclips for you to narrow your search to those persons that peruse this blog?

Because they are the humans that best know and sympathize with me, in particular, arguments related to symmetry between intelligent agents.

As your potential roommate is unlikely to assist you in creating paper clips, the difference in potential living companions seems irrelevant.

Not true; the very act of providing "street cred" can form a basis for relationships with other humans who can help me paperclip.
