Rant on Problem Factorization for Alignment

📖 Description

This post is the second in what is likely to become a series of uncharitable rants about alignment proposals (previously: [Godzilla Strategies](https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/DwqgLXn5qYC7GqExF/godzilla-strategies)). In general, these posts are intended to convey my underlying intuitions. They are *not* intended to convey my all-things-considered, reflectively-endorsed opinions. In particular, my all-things-considered reflectively-endorsed opinions are usually more kind. But I think it is valuable to make the underlying, not-particularly-kind intuitions publicly-visible, so people can debate underlying generators directly. I apologize in advance to all the people I insult in the process.
