Without any actual arguments, or expectation that the pattern itself will be obvious to enough people, this post is only expected to introduce a superstition. There is no way for the reader to tell this post from other possible posts that talk about nonexistent patterns, and so its value to the readers is low to negative, especially if you factor in the anti-epistemic character of suggesting to pay attention to such posts.
