I know what you mean about "unrecognized good", though the term is new to me. Sometimes you realize that a good thing depends on a not-so-good (at the time) thing having happened. It's great when things like that work out.
You would be able to tell if you visited the site now, but it wasn't so obvious in 2011-2012. There's a claim -- no idea if it's true -- that while, if you drop a frog into boiling water it'll jump right out (ouchie), if you instead put it in a pot of cold water and gradually heat it up, the frog won't jump out in time and you get cooked frog. Jews, and for that matter non-evangelical Christians, were the frogs in that site's pot of cold water.
And it's not just the frogs who couldn't tell in time; several of the moderators and senior users can't see it either. Oh well.
