Excellent article! I have nothing to contribute but a bit of mechanical correction:

I regard rationality in its purest form as an individual thing - not because rationalists have only selfish interests, but because of the form of the only admissible question: "Is is actually true?"

Minor typo here; you mean "Is it actually true?"

If it's being really integrated, that is, rather than flushed down a black hole.

The phrase "flushed down a black hole" in the article above is a link, but it is unfortunately broken.
