Feels like a somewhat arbitrary decision.. other thread was #1 on hn and had a lot more points. Is the goal to give the author his due karma? Misattribution happens all the time and it's ok. If anything would've merged this the other way.
It was a bit of an experiment but yes I wanted schlichtm to get the credit, and I also think it makes it more interesting that it was a Show HN.
