Nice. "everything becomes a market for lemons..." Long I've been pondering how our notions of technical debt (managing risk, complexity) might apply to government, regulations, bureaucracy, etc. There's so many analogs. eg René Descartes said our cities would be simple and orderly if designed by a single mind. Now your comment makes me realize I ignored the flip. What are our analogs (in software, design) to regulatory capture, rent seeking, and other pathologies. Thank you.
