I get extremely suspicious of people when I discover that there's some guy whose work they're super into and have made the foundation of their personal philosophy. I do this even if the guy is someone whose work I like, and even if they're someone I like personally.
(I guess implicit in that is that it has to be immerse first critique later... in practice that's how it always works for me)

Interesting. I think I reverse these - I tend to want to integrate new knowledge into existing frameworks so I'm naturally more critical of it as it clashes and then slowly integrate it more fully. TBH this is a lot of why I'm not (yet?) a metarat - haven't integrated it well

Hm. Actually if I'm very unconvinced/suspicious of something I guess I do critique first. But in general I find less effective, because I have to artificially jam the thing into an existing framework instead of just seeing what it can do.
