I agree that detailed exploration of Singularity strategies would alienate some LW-ers, and some SingInst-ers.

It'll alienate some SingInst-ers? That's a troubling sign. Aren't most SingInst-ers at least vaguely competent rationalists who are actually interested in Singularity options? Yet they will be alienated by mere theoretical exploration of the domain? What has your HR department been doing?
