In this environment, no one should assume we know which actor is working in good/bad faith or that something is intentional rather than a mistake. We need to avoid knee jerk reactions, IMHO. Flagging for #AAAS is good, just don’t assume they were the ones in this exchange that were purposely obtuse!
