So you predict the top comments For a claim would be:

1. Dismisal

2. Trivialism

3. Non Well Formed Claim

4. I accept the claim

5. Disprove by counter example

Are you sure you have not forgotten any tactic of debate to include in you prediction?

I predict that you Prediction will result probably in these actions:

1. upvoted

2. downvoted

6. Discussion around the idea that adds something of value.

Every one of them adds value. Question the premises (wellformed question) Question the motives/importance (dismisal) Disprove by counter example

The only one that can be questioned if it adds something of value is the acceptance and surrender one (I welcome the overlords) although in some forms of thought, advising t0 not fight with the inevitable can be viewed as constructive.
