While I appreciate the insight into the results, I think it be extremely bad for HN to encourage or allow this practice. I've upvoted your submission in the hopes that it gains further attention, and flagged it and the post containing the affiliate link.

I realize this affiliate links are a divisive issue, but my hope is that they will be reviewed and your account will be banned. I don't know whether others agree with me, but I think adding affiliate links to comments here is uncivil and intolerable behaviour.
