Altruism, on the other hand, is all about values.

We are speaking about effective altruism not altruism in general.

In practice there seems to be quite an overlap between the EA and the LW crowd and there are people deciding whether to hold EA or LW meetups.

Just because there's an overlap doesn't mean that LW should be rebranded as EA.
