I appreciate this. What are peoples thoughts?

Arguing against certainly takes more work. Do you feel that, if someone did the arguing against, as suggested in the article and presented the steel man argument against a proposal, and then refuted the arguement against, that their work and effort would be dismissed? Or worse, might others might think less of the proposal?

My preliminary feelings are that it would still be appreciated and recognized, just not perhaps proportionally to the effort.
