As far as I can tell...nothing. Most likely, there are simply many LessWrongers (like me) that disagree with E.Y. on this point.

What leads you to believe that you disagree with Eliezer on this point? I suspect that you are just going by the title. I just read the essay and he endorses lots of practices that others call Devil's Advocacy. I'm really not sure what practice he is condemning. If you can identify a specific practice that you disagree with him about, could you describe it in your own words?
