I don't believe this is what Sivers is talking about.
He is talking about the Noble price effect: What happens when people that earn a Nobel price that makes impossible for them to continue working in the field that made them to earn the price, they get invited to so many parties and given so many distinctions and honors and everybody wants to be with you, learn from you or be your friend.
You can help a lot of people in an individual basis this way, locally whenever you go. Those Nobel prices could make millions of people to be interested in science.
Most people can't understand how much of a problem this could be.
