I often struggle to explain that: 1. Generally, the range of things you could possibly do that are worse than nothing is larger than the range of things that are better AND 2. Trying most things is cheap & when trying in earnest, humans are good filterers of possibility space

Broadly speaking, humans are prone to get into serious trouble when they attempt massive-scale things straight out of the gate, but they also don't try to do nearly *enough* things

They also fuck up *much, much* more when they're incentivized to *look like* they're trying to do something rather than incentivized to actually do the thing, and it's not always clear to anyone involved which of the two is happening or that there is a distinction at all

If it's not clear why this is, consider this: Is it easier to solve a very hard problem, or... ...to accidentally/subtly introduce or neglect obstacles that you can later use as evidence that it wasn't your fault that the problem didn't get solved?

One lesson that game development has (slowly, painfully) learned is that drawing up a 50-page master plan for what your game will look like and then building exactly that is a recipe for disaster unless you've built something extremely similar before.

Instead, starting with a bunch of cheap experiments lets you find the fun before you commit a ton of resources to full scale production. I can't help but imagine something similar goes for radical social change.
