Yes, that would be tribal affiliations showing. I always assumed the cure for this was more steelmanning...
Which part? Is lack of interest in steel manning YEC just a sign of tribal affiliations?
Both points - the lack of consistency, and privileging the hypothesis.
(In fairness, it's more than "tribal affliliations". There are probably all sorts of biases creating this particular danger in being half a rationalist.)
