Your point definitely stands, but I feel there is still a good faith use case for this.
I've definitely been young and passionate and, occasionally a bit inebriated and/or triggered by certain things when I commented on the internet (in fact I'm usually silent unless I've had a few drinks).
Though I don't think myself a bad faith actor, I've definitely written things I shouldn't in the past. Often with good intentions, but perhaps with anger or passion clouding my judgement. Most folks have something that will trigger them to respond in a sub par way after a bad sleep or a long day.
I'd like to think that a tool to let me know I'm alienating rather than persuading the folks I'm talking to would provide benefit.
But yeah. This is a difficult one. Not everyone who is being a jerk is just having an out-of-character bad day.
