So you’re asserting it isn’t a tradeoff because power has little correlation with virtue, so we can optimize for pure L policies because R doesn’t come up in practice?
I don’t “optimize for pure L” would be the takeaway from there being no correlation between power and virtue. Even if there is no correlation, you would still want good incentives at all levels, not just at the top.
