Agreed. The main caveat I had in mind is that communities are not fixed- it’s easy for everyone to be a big fish in a little pond if there are lots of little ponds and people weight most of their time towards the ponds in which they are big. See the Loser section of the Gervais Principle, but also note the caveat there that there are big status competitions that it’s problematic to try to opt out of.
