Note: The author of this piece wrote the original analysis (http://www.evanmiller.org/how-not-to-sort-by-average-rating....) that directly led to my advocating for reddit's "best" comment sort, including to xkcd's Randall Munroe, who managed to finally convince the rest of Team Reddit to make the change (http://www.redditblog.com/2009/10/reddits-new-comment-sortin...).

So when the author says, "I realize that proposing any change to how Reddit works is one of the Internet's most dangerous games," he should be informed that it's actually a game he's won before.
