Loaded terminology. "Experimenting on wikis" is one thing, while
"Experimenting on users" sounds BAD -- the lab rats will revolt! Obviously,
testing changes to a web site means presenting alternatives to users of the
web site and measuring outcomes.

(There is My preferences > Appearance > check "Exclude me from feature
experiments"; though it's probable some artifacts will leak out, as
happened for a few weeks in the bug he references.)
