The deeper I dive into the topic, the more complex I realize it is.

I've collected about 30+ causes of the productivity paradox in this document, and I think there is still a lot deeper I could go.

And, I agree I could go deeper in understanding different forms and variations of governments at a deeper level. And, I hope to in the future.

The challenge is that each deep dive for the dozens of explanations is probably hundreds of hours. And even then, it will be possible to assign the weights of cause and effect properly. And what is unknown may be bigger than what is known.

Even experts specialize in a few pet explanations they analyze everything through and miss many other perspectives.

So, I view my role as trying to point to phenomenon, but not necessarily trying to come up with the over-arching explanation.
