Thanks Owen. I agree with you on every point. Re. the possibility it might be too much to do all of them at once—this is why I want to focus now on having general research done that is needed before an EA could start a direct charity, before we focus on actually founding a charity.
Especially agree with your last paragraphs—this is why we’re (very likely) trying to fund someone to do this research.
(I’d love to do it myself, but unfortunately won’t have time for a project this size within the next year. If we can’t find someone willing to do it in that time frame, I might end up doing it myself.)
