Yeah, I agree. It wasn’t exactly subtle in it’s messaging, and the story felt like just an excuse to display dystopian ideas

I’d compare it to 1984, which was similar in that the ideas communicated were the main point, but it also had a strong narrative that much better communicated the human experience of those ideas

It would be bad. Having more distance between decision makers and the impact of those decisions is not good

It means everything must be boiled down to metrics, and when you make decisions based on metrics you tend to ignore externalities and miss large parts of the picture

It also means every power hungry asshole is going to be drawn to the world government like moths to a flame. It’ll instantly become a very political environment, where human well-being becomes the chips in a games of power
