If you read the "I agree" as sarcastic, then it looks like the right meta level. (I'm not sure it's a good thing I thought that was more plausible than the accident hypothesis when I first parsed that sentence.)

Not sarcasm, although now that you mentioned it I can definitely see it, just well intentioned humour. See the other comment :)
