Builds MVP-quality product Announces that the world isn't ready for the idea as a whole

  Hey, despite your comment sounding mean, I want to meaningfully respond: Where do you set the personal boundry for evaluating an experiment as a failure or success? E.g. in the case of social networks and what consequences Facebook brought us. When is the right time for Mark Zuckerberg to announce conclusive failure or success for his actions? Pessimists say he should have admitted it years ago. He himself doesn't even accept the premise of the argument. Rather he sees it as his personal calling or responsibility to build (source: see Lex Friedman podcast). Who's right here? Anyways, it isn't my intention to negatively associate digital or quadratic voting. Rather the post is an attempt at adding to a currently inconclusive picture through critique.

    That was a weird criticism. In my mind this gives more credibility to both your article and your endeavors in quadratic voting. The article has more credibility because it isn’t from somebody who has a bias against quadratic voting, and your quadratic voting efforts have more credibility because people see you are willing to see and address flaws in the system.

  Do you think it's never possible to determine the future success of a product by attempting to build an MVP? You could maybe try to argue that the implementation hadn't reached the minimum level yet, and therefore wasn't an MVP and it was too early to draw conclusions, but it sounds like you're just assuming that.
