Thanks for the writeup.

Since posting it on my profile, my karma has uniformly risen when I log in. Hypothesis: people are moderating their down-karma-ing because they may think they've fallen for a bit of bait to expose their irrationality to me and the wider community

I predict that this isn't what is happening. I think it is either

  • people adjusting to you
  • you subconsciously adjusting to the community

or both.
