Totally agreed. Also a good reason to let other people review your controversial posts before you publish them.

I've always been kind of annoyed by pg's "Thanks to [these 8 influencers] for reviewing early versions of this article" footnotes, but I think it's valuable. (Annoyed because it feels like namedropping. That's my bias though, not his problem.)



You've perfectly summed up my thoughts on pg's (and increasingly other people) "acknowledgements" in articles - thanks.
