The vehicle game is poor metric, since it measures the general population, and doesn't up-front make it clear whether the spirit or letter of the law should be applied. People need some minimum life-experience as well before they can pass judgement, which many in the "audience" simply don't have. I for instance find it easier to talk about a start-ups problems to someone that had run a restaurant for a few years than to a developer. All that means is that moderation can be achieved, it just costs a lot and may not scale easily.
