> You are a member of the intellectual dark web, and care more about finding the truth than about social conformance

Isn't this a declaration of what social conformance you prefer? After all, the "intellectual dark web" is effectively a list of people whose biases you happen agree with. Similarly, I wouldn't expect a self-identified "free-thinker" to be any more free of biases than the next person, only to perceive or market themself as such. Bias is only perceived as such from a particular point in a social graph.

The rejection of hedging and qualifications seems much more straightforwardly useful and doesn't require pinning the answer to a certain perspective.

Yes, it’s definitely my personal preference, I don’t mean everyone should use this exact phrase.

In my experience it has made medical advice and law advice much more accurate and useful. Feel free to try it and see if it improves anything.
