Am I missing any definition of avoidance? Other than misalignment?

Finally, it seems unhelpful to me to put tax planning, tax evasion and corruption in the same bucket. Each is measured differently. Each is implemented through different techniques. Each has to be combatted in different ways. What is the benefit of treating them all the same way?

Thanks Dan, appreciate these. The narrower questions are I think answered/explained in the text, though I'll create them as github issues to make sure we consider them in the review (or perhaps you'd like to do that directly?).

On the broader point (should avoidance be included), we'd certainly welcome, and reflect in the argument, a reasoned counterview if you wished to put it forward on gitbook.

Well I'm fundamentally asking a question: what is the benefit of putting them together? And apologies but unfortunately the day job means I don't have time to write anything more coherent than 280 characters here and there.

Would be great to have an answer to that. I see no benefit from running the different issues together, and a number of serious disadvantages.

In terms of the book, it doesn't make sense to unpick the UN process. I might have written the SDGs differently but we are where we are. On the substance of having an umbrella term, there are pros and cons...
