    and because of the radically-higher signal-to-noise ratio here than Reddit, participation here is radically increasing my doxing profile.

This, especially, is an extremely good point. Are there any pros to remaining indexable? Tentatively it might increase content-related traffic (as opposed to people thinking about reddit traffic). People might conceivably read a Wired/NPR article about hubski, try to google it and give up because they draw a blank. But surely this won't happen almost ever.

EDIT: oh, the biggest pro -- without google I would never find any old posts or comments that I needed to reference. Can't de-index without a passable replacement for searching.
