Is it a LessWrongian faux pas to comment only to agree with someone? Here's the context:
I was going to say that I agree and that I had not considered my observation as an effect of survivorship bias.
I guess I thought it might be useful to explicitly relate what he said to a bias. Maybe that's just stating the obvious here? Maybe I should do it anyway because it might help someone?
I'd also like to know about this in less specific contexts.
