All points excellent: indeed, unimpeachable. Techno-optimism as a cope for disliking coordination is especially brilliant. I have updated my model of this phenomenon accordingly.

"Mental healing at scale. The world is a very traumatising place. Our default coping mechanisms make us very un-ambitious. I believe there is an arbitrage in massively scalable therapy, that makes people more happy, more productive and more prone to coordination."

I would like to hear more about this. Why do you believe this? What would this therapy look like? How could it scale when a lot of skilled-therapists struggle to transfer their same tacit-knowledge to more than a couple of people at a time? What's the cheapest/fastest possible test of your idea?
