How should we evaluate tools for thought? There's no simple metric, as far as I can tell. The best tools change your paradigm anyway, so your old metrics (books printed per year?) aren't what matter. Here's one (vague, but focusing): how much meaning is unlocked on the margin?

Great epistemic tools serve as maps which provide dictionaries to move between different worlds/perspectives. I.e. you have a set of rules where you can use an understanding of one thing to understand something else that is completely different from that thing.

I have a friend who says we know everything by analogy, "using an understanding of one thing to understand something else".
