Humanity / humanism and science aren't opposed.

Wrong social models can have bad human implications. It seems to me that being careful with these models and requiring rigor is the humanist thing to do.

Go ahead and present hypotheses, that can be very interesting, just don't present them as facts.

(Now maybe this asker-guesser thing is indeed studied, I don't know)

The article called it a provocative opinion described in a comment which became a meme.

  • Indeed! I didn't remember this (yes, I had already read that article a long time ago, I only scanned it quickly this time).

    At least the article is honest with its source.

    Thanks for emphasizing this.
