I don't see how this constitutes a "different emphasis" from my own. Right now, SI is the way one supports the activities in question. Once the spinoff has finally spun off and can take donations itself, it will be possible to support the rationality work directly.
The different emphasis comes down to your comment that:
In my opinion, I can more effectively support those activities that I think are effective by not supporting SI. Waiting until the Center for Applied Rationality gets its tax-exempt status in place allows me to both target my donations and directly signal where I think SI has been most effective up to this point.
If they end up having short-term cashflow issues prior to that split, my first response would be to register for the next Singularity Summit a bit early since that's another piece that I wish to directly support.
