Yes, I know I'm replying to a 2007 comment with a link to a 2010 blog post.

Totally reasonable. Unless the tone was "you'd know this if you'd only bothered to read the 2010 post first".

Which I observed once as a comment to a post by Eliezer linking to a much-later post by Eliezer.

This only seems unreasonable to us because we haven't yet read the 2015 post about acausal reference.

Well then that commentor should have linked to that 2015 post.

Sadly, the AHTML markup syntax won't be available until 2017.
