"Something bad might happen!", while technically true, is not a great argument by itself.

@GrumplessGrinch The argument being made here is "certain a priori considerations should cause us to expect more unspecified bad things".

@MemberOfSpecies I've never had an a priori consideration, so I guess I'm missing the premise of this argument.

@GrumplessGrinch I meant prior to thinking about concrete bad effects.

@MemberOfSpecies Okay. But you have to actually talk about what those consideration are. All I've seen is handwaving.

@GrumplessGrinch If you're not impressed with the considerations given, that's where to pursue the disagreement.

@MemberOfSpecies There haven't been any.
