"To some degree"? Surely. It could have influenced you to spend a few seconds checking whether the account was a throwaway. I think that would have been entirely reasonable.

But it didn't influence you "to some degree". We can be more specific than that. It influenced you to accuse the account of being a throwaway without spending a few seconds to check.

I do think that was mildly unreasonable. Not super unreasonable, but mildly.



Welp, on a second look it turns out it wasn't you who made that accusation. I, uh, could probably have spent a few seconds checking that.
