I know nothing I could say is worthy of following Chuang Tzu. But in this instance, it would have been a mistake to leave the quote to stand on its own.
But the HN moral compass tends to be so strong! I have no aversion to running against the grain (and am perversely attracted to it), but like to know the lay of the land before I make a choice on something. I like that the no show policy on points prevents some of my previous behaviour (like staring at a comment which had lots of points, trying hard to work out what the hell was wrong with the voters).
