It's completely appropriate to ask the HN community to do more work before posting, instead of posting opinions that haven't been checked against reality. The mods use this same approach when advising us to act better: a single top-level comment, discussing a common misbehavior and asking for it to stop. We should aspire to be a better community, but individually chastising tens of comments for posting unfounded and repetitive comments would pollute the discussion with needless repetition of the same core point.
