But why doesn’t the all out attack work against status?
This model, when we’re only talking about status, seems like another reflection of the “I can’t” view so no commitment to make the effort is made.
I assume your “slap down” is not merely those with status ridiculing the idea attempting to point out flaws in the theory or design but rather that of applying both economic, political and perhaps even raw force to stop you. In that case the issue doesn’t seem to be status (though clearly that might indicate a level or location of risk). It issue is the ability of others with an interest in stopping you in achieving that goal. Seems to me that decision process there would be performing a calculation on a different set of inputs than status.

I think it often does. All out attacks do actually work quite often.
