Oh cool. I think I read something like this that you tweeted about a couple weeks ago. It probably needs to become more deeply lodged into my mind :)

Not sure if related but there was a great line in Eric Weinstein’s interview with his brother where Bret said, “I discovered something in trying to figure out what [the literature] meant by ‘mice’.”

More of a hard-sciences example, but I love that progress could only be made by problematizing what everyone takes for granted: that mice are just mice. In this example, they were a specific breed of lab mice that had been subject to very weird and intense selection pressures.
