I notice that while Twitter allows me to productively interact with ~10 people, its main effect is public advertising that I am a big nerd, which may have negative utility. Please advise.

Those who gain the most are probably not responding: I read your stuff, being thankful for the perspective, but mostly don't feel quite competent enough to engage in discussion (competent enough to know you're ahead, which makes me shy). Don't equate responses with impact :)

Subjectively, the response is mostly a mixture of indifference and annoyance, with only a small fraction of followers getting actual value out of my feed, so they might be served better by a protected account?

no - obviousness depends on how deeply you've integrated a concept and is not objective, whatever's obvious to you may be novel to others and posting it can still result in net good
