So, what kind of foods are you farming?
> Every industry that can be converted from "everybody weighs in because it's sort of a social issue" to "mostly only people with a horse in the race weigh in" is a huge plus for humanity.
Not if that horse is just wanting to use money to make more money, consequences for humans be damned. Everything can be viewed as that, or as a "complex systems", and then the people who like abstract musings about complex systems can weigh in, and you're free to do that -- but to 99% of all living humans and 99.999% of all who historically lived that is both monstrous and uninteresting. At least that would be my "bet" -- so if your claim is that it would be "better for humanity" (not even "better for HN" where you might have a point) for only experts or capitalists or people who like machines more than vulgar, average people to weigh in, as I said, I'm very confident "humanity" would soundly disagree, and would be correct in doing so.
