Okay, so you‘re defining the problem as groups transmitting too little information? Then I think a natural first step when thinking about the problem is to determine an upper bound on how much information can be effectively transmitted. My intuition is that the realistic answer for many recipients would turn out to be “not a lot more than is already being transmitted”. If I’m right about that (which is a big “if”), then we might not need much thinking beyond that point to rule out this particular framing of the problem as intractable.

I think you’re very very wrong about that.
Fair enough. Thanks for the conversation!
