      Companies probably avoid possible risks with law suits. There also risk of getting it approved and wasting money on development.

      So why has the government decided that cognitive enhancers are something that should not be approved, but that gender reassignment should get the green light, insurance coverage, offered on the NHS, etc?pic.twitter.com/n9OYiwk2N3

      People who really want nootropics just buy them on the black market, then stop there. That's much harder to do for surgeries, so people who want gender reassignment surgery were better incentivized to fight for it.

      > gender reassignment surgery .. better incentivized Perhaps, or perhaps it's that gender reassignment surgery fits into an ascendant political narrative and gets an easy ride and easy £££, whereas cognitive enhancement is opposed to this narrative and gets shut down.

      Again there is a mistake theory angle and a conflict theory angle, but to me the mistake theory hypothesis looks quite contrived. There are a lot of patients lobbying for more treatment and more money for their thing. Many in desperate need w/ no medical progress (e.g. CFS)

      And yet out of all these groups, the one that gets money and an easy regulatory ride is gender reassignment, and this apparently has nothing to do with the political power of the trans/SJW lobby?

      Mistake vs conflict theory don't exactly carve nature at the joints. Conflict driven is real but the result of incentives in group dynamics; ostentatiously hating / harming the outgroup gets you status. Mistake driven is also real - where incentives don't match desired outcomes

      These converge to give results; example of cog enhancement - people who care about that are handicapped in signalling competitions so those people don't get promoted at FDA. The result is FDA is prone to making "mistakes" in the direction of the group think ex replication crisis

      Ok so there is a continuum between the two. What % of the outcome is chance/bad luck versus what % is enemy action. Then there is the issue that generically, problems do not simply solve themselves. Things are broken and progress usually requires some group to push it through.

      Fundamentally you can't divide the two. "The system" (any system) doesn't select for people who are interested in results, it selects for people that are good at getting selected by the system. The best way to be selected by a system is to form a team and promote teammates 1/2

          Simplified but a Schelling point for cooperation between strangers is a religion; every system without an explicit religion will be taken over by a religion only under selective pressure to be good at taking over systems and adjudicating disputes (progressivism). 2/2

          Yes, that's a great way of putting it, and I really wish I could transmit this knowledge back to my naïve younger self in ~2006/7.
