Anyway, it's a totally legitimate move to write a completely caveat-free analysis as an example and then be like "please take your nitpicks to the original source, I promise it addresses them" + maybe this would have saved you time defending from nitpicks?
If I have some anti-nitpick clause about the thing someone is complaining about, on HN, someone will respond that this was addressed in the article, which will become the top response and knock out the comment

If it's on reddit, the 2nd level response won't get any traction unless it's humorous and there's no effect, and on slashdot the 2nd level response usually won't happen, and if it does, it will end up +2 vs. a +5, insightful or something

Maybe this doesn't actually matter? It's hard to tell. But I think that potential readers sometimes don't read because the top comment is something like "this guy obviously doesn't know anything about CPUs since this idea was first seen in 1973".
