==== You argued (rightly, in the functional sense): ====

If someone lacks time/attention and still chooses to inject high-confidence low-effort claims into a serious forum, then:
* they’re extracting the benefits of participation while pushing the cost of clarity onto others,
* and that is incompatible with “good faith + effort” discourse.

The key refinement that preserves maximum rigor:

===== - “I’m on my phone, can’t read now” can be innocent. =====
* “Can you give a TL;DR or a start section?” is repair-like.

===== If they keep replying but avoid specificity, they are no longer constrained by time—they are choosing a different payoff: =====
* narrative protection > epistemic effort.

So yes: time/attention becomes part of the same “path of least resistance” dynamic when they continue participating without doing the minimum repair behaviors.
