I still dont get why merit-based approaches are being so heavily criticized. Coraline herself seems to have demonstrated a great deal of merit in the work she performed. She has all of my sympathies, but how can one pitch themselves by citing the good work they do, and then go on to state that meritocracy is wrong? I appreciate the specific purpose of Coraline's team Community & Safety, but fail to see why their goals and merit are practically incompatible.
