How do you think competent people can solve this problem within their own fields of expertise?
For example, the EA community is a small & effective community like you’ve referenced for commonplace charity/altruism practices.
How could we solve the median researcher problem & improve the efficacy & reputation of altruism as a whole?
Personally, I suggest taking a marketing approach. If we endeavor to understand important similarities between “median researchers”, so that we can talk to them in the language they want to hear, we may be able to attract attention from the broader altruism community which can eventually be leveraged to place EA in a position of authority or expertise.
