For what it's worth, the complaints I've heard about LW center around arrogance, not excessive compliance.
you could restate the arrogance as an expectation that others update when you say things
Likewise, especially of people talking about fields they are not experts in.
I agree that this is a common failure mode locally on LW, but even if this community did not have this problem, Villiam_Bur's point would still have a lot of explanatory power on why raising-the-sanity-line methods are resisted by society at large.
