We should perhaps formalize norms for upvoting based on this kind of comment. In any case, I'm doing so. And then going back to read the context to make sure I agree.
I find that the increased attention given to the context combined with the positive priming is more than enough.
In this case, however I am finding that the comment backfired. It is Kaj's comment, not lessdazed's. Lessdazed's comment isn't bad as an independent observation but does miss the point of its parent. This means Eliezer's "upvote MOAR" comment is a red herring and I had to downvote it and lessdazed in responsed where I would otherwise have left it alone.
