Even if the author of the post is aware that their view is rather
extreme and deranged? Self censorship, making mental revisions or
rewriting a gazillion times to keep one's word valuable can make one
miserable. On the other hand, being ignored can be bothersome too
such as when people speak right through or over you at the dinner
table. Being too aloof to goof off can be problematic too in that it
keeps one from letting off steam.

Sometimes it is just a pain to take a position. Especially on a mailing list.
