@fleroy1974 @zooko @marqquezine You're right that power imbalances *should not* be a factor - but they are. "Ought" is not "is". This is why your original tweet is norm-reinforcing and harmful: because there's a power imbalance that you're ignoring. I really recommend that link I gave earlier on 'punching up'.
