Yeah, after I posted that I got to thinking that maybe meta wasn't the correct place for it after all, considering it is sort of an amalgamation of meta and economy, which makes me think that General Discussion was the right place for it, which is where it was originally, so my apologies freequent for this:
i found it in meta where it should have been posted initially.
at any rate it is an interesting post and deserves to be somewhere people will see it which was part of my motivation for posting that it was moved.
