I think the lesson is that we have a system in place which incentives this categorically and there's no escape hatch from it. What systems could be developed which would counter or de-incentivize this from occurring?
There is no simple rule that tells you what's worth preserving and what can be thrown out. There are incentives to not break things that are working as long as they make money.
But incentives only go so far. There was little incentive for Musk to do what he's doing at Twitter, but he did it anyway after he got caught in a trap of his own devising.
Be careful. Any system that stops behavior that you don't want might also stop the thing that you are trying to help from being created in the first place
Right, there's one way to verify this, using the scientific method and empirical observations. There's also one clear way of guaranteed failing: giving up before even starting.
