Reminds me of an analogy in the corporate world. Seems doing the reading = addressing (somewhat obvious) problems. Many people could tell you what the biggest problems are, and maybe even what the org should do to fix, but basically nobody does anything about it.
I also remember a bit from _Who Says Elephants Can't Dance_ where Lou Gerstner, new CEO, gave ~10 reports some task (going from memory, a 5-page report). Only something like half of them even *completed* the task.
