You could be right, but I don't see how it can be known with any confidence until a few approaches are given extended good faith trials. There are anecdotal examples supporting both scenarios and the problem simply seems too unknowable and important not to test drive whatever the top 2 or 3 approaches end up being.

I don't see how you can disagree that cooperation of community to try something different is not a major hurdle.
How many years has it been since important issues in the academic process were widely known? How much success in adoption has there been to date, regarding any fundamental changes?
It seems on its face to be crucial.

If anything, I think the drive to centralize and homogenize, which is part of managerialism, is a big part of some of the prominent problems in academia.
