It's nice to see that LW's epistemic root system is dense enough to support explorations like these -- much better than freaking out and marring its own reputation a la the atheism vs. Atheism Plus flap. It sends a good message.
EDIT: This is the first thing I've read on LW that makes me think of it as a culture.
What is an epistemic root system, and how can they be dense?
It's an imperfect metaphor for everybody trusting each other to think real good. Dense root systems help prevent erosion (in this case of epistemic standards).
