PG had lots of terms, e.g., independent minded, and lots of proposed connections among them. Okay, for some approaches to science, the next step is to define numerical measures of the terms and then to state the proposed connections mathematically. Then gather a lot of data and test the connections. E.g., not from PG, but as people rise in organizations, do they become more conservative, e.g., in PG's terminology, more conventional minded? Pursuing just that one question scientifically was my wife's Ph.D. dissertation. Point: Addressing scientifically all of PG's proposed connections would be a lot of work! And my guess is that many of the connections, including ones seemingly nearly obviously true -- would be very tough to settle scientifically.
