Yes it’s an important insight that paper clips are a representative example of a much bigger and simpler space of optimization targets than alpine villages.
Sure, but “alpine villages” or something alike, were called “astronomical waste” in the MIRI’s language from the old days. When the “fun space”, as they called it, was nearly infinite. Now they say, its volume is almost certainly zero.
