Perhaps this blog post might clear that up. This guy who "authored an influential study" was a Stanford psych and law professor knew people and had a team. What does gvt do anyway other than the bidding of the networks of people running it? https://bloodyshovel.wordpress.com/2015/07/27/trade-and-peace/ …

Replying to @thespandrell
No one in government has an incentive to do anything other than (a) loot the place and (b) raise personal status through virtue signalling. This guy started a cascading wave that let a lot of people do (b). I'm sure if someone were to dig a bunch of (a) happened too.

Exactly - he wanted in on the virtue signalling action and he got it! People ooh'ed and aww'ed at his status at parties and he likely leveraged that into getting laid a few times. What does game theory say about this?

Set up the payout matrix: Do nothing - movement proceeds anyway - SF gets overrun by crazy screaming bums, get no benefit Create fraudulent studies - movement proceeds faster - SF overrun, maybe get laid a few times Socially it's insane - individually it's rational.
