Yes, resource allocation is a much more difficult problem than resource consumption. Why is this mind-boggling?
- Karellen 4y agoBecause the problem of resource consumption initially appears to be a subset of the problem of resource allocation. You are generally not permitted to consume resources that your peers have not agreed to allocate to you, and there will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth if you do. Therefore, if resource consumption is occurring, some set of resource allocation strategies should already have been agreed upon.

A unified system of land organisation, subdivision and addressing would make it easier to determine/refine/update which land is allocated how, similar to how unified systems of measurment made trade easier a long time ago. Even for entities in conflict over what land belongs to whom, such a system would simplify the formulating and argueing of their respective claims.
