@adamgreenfield I'm curious of that intellectual angle. A lot of criticism of my review say that "I'm asking for some grassroots fairy-tale", while I really wanted to express that I want to focus on things more >detailed< than a single, top-down solution.
Ada Palmer wrote about the dirty futures of hard work ( https://beforewegoblog.com/purity-and-futures-of-hard-work-by-ada-palmer/ ) and I'm under impression that a lot of other writers just want the solutions to be clean; mechanistic; elegant, without checking in with the reality.
@alxd That has not *generally* been Stan’s jam, which is why MFTF was so very disappointing.
