Roughly, crunch time is more valuable and higher leverage than the time before it, but this depends on the particular goal at issue and the exact difference is unclear even for particular goals.
This would potentially imply that [finding ways to just have more crunch time] would also be worth researching ahead of time. It’s a difficult kind of future to forecast, but it could be incredibly valuable if someone, right now, successfully thinks of of a reasonable way to keep crunch time at a stable state for a very long time.
