I didn't go through the list systematically like this before I posted my previous comment but what you say here sounds about right. The thing that strikes me most after reading through your rundown is that we don't actually get very much Giant commentary on positions here on BGO, with two notable exceptions: Nack and Neil, who both comment frequently. That's probably why I didn't have any strong impressions one way or the other for anyone else: lack of data. (I mentally excluded Nack for the same reason you did—"consulting a bot" in this context means consulting a bot while trying to create the impression that you didn't, and obviously if one quotes a nacbrac one is making no pretense of never having looked at what a bot said about the position.)

Though I find commentary by all players valuable and interesting, I would take this opportunity to encourage Giants to participate more. That includes Giants from years other than 2009. It will attract more people to BGO if they hear, and can confirm themselves, that Giants frequently post here with postional analyses.
