ideas-group-discourse

in dialog: perhaps, for those who take the point of view that the influence priors are unavoidable given the cost of computation and communication, there should be a standardized way to reply to someone with 'i disagree with that but i consider this viewpoint 'beyond the pale' or 'crazy' and so rather than rationally discussing it i refuse to discuss it further'. After which the counterparty has a chance to present a short summary of their 'crazy' viewpoint and a link to further information, and then that topic is closed within this dialog.
