Providing a clear explanation of your theories would be useful. You don't seem to even really try, and instead write comments and posts that don't even attempt to bridge the inferential distance. At the same time, you do frequently write content where you talk about how you feel superior to LWers. In other words, you say you're better than us because you don't give us a real chance to catch up with your thoughts.
That's kinda rude.
It also makes one suspect that you either don't actually have a theory that was coherent enough to formulate clearly, or that you prefer to bask in your feeling of superiority instead of bothering to discuss the theory with us lowly LW-ers. Acting in a way to make yourself immune to criticism hardly fits the claim of being "a few levels above nearly any other aspiring rationalist". Rather, it shows that you're failing even the very rudiments of rationalist practice 101.
