Yes, it does affect me.
To illustrate: I wanted to zap your post, but got an error when I tried. Since I've never seen that error before, I thought I'd create a post for it in ~meta. Kinda like a bug report / support question.
That would have cost me 202 sats, which, ordinarily wouldn't put me off.
But instead I decided to add it here as a comment:
Saves me 201 sats.
