While I agree I was influenced by confirmation bias to recall an anecdote that supports the blog’s argument, I don’t think it’s very meaningful to call out. It’s most important to consider confirmation bias if you are being overly supportive or dismissive of an argument, beyond what the evidence suggests. It would also be important to consider confirmation bias before making decisions.
