I can see how ridicule of this specific instance could be the best medicine for an optimal outcome, even by a utilitarian argument, which I generally don't like to make by the way. It is indeed nigh impossible, which is kind of my point. They could have shown more humility. If anything, this whole debacle has been a moral victory for e/acc, seeing how the brightest of minds are at a loss dealing with alignment anyway.
