Have not thought about compounding returns to orgs! I can think of some concrete examples with AIM ecosystem charities (e.g one org helping bring another into creation or creating a need for others to exist). Food for thought.
Curious how you see the communitarianism playing out in practice?
There’s definitely a cooperative side to things that makes it a lot easier to ask for help amongst EAs than the relevant professional groups someone might be a part of, but not sure I’m seeing obvious implications.

I’m only saying it’s in tension with the diagnosis as “emphasis on individual action, behavior & achievement over collective.”
I agree with all of your concrete discussion and think it’s important.
