Promoted to curated: This post reminds me of Kevin Simler’s “Going Critical” and similar to that post, I think that it explores some quite complicated topics quite well with the help of careful use of small-scale simulations. I don’t think we should take any of the simulation-based results here straightforwardly, but I do think there is a lot of value in running simulations like this to further our understanding.
