Thanks, that’s useful to me! E.g. I didn’t consider trying to convince those surveying institutions to ask about particularly important topics they might not have on their radar, or maybe paying them for the service.
As you don’t plan considering it further, did you make a guess how useful work on this seems? For fields that are particularly relevant for EAs (like epidemiology, AI, maybe international relations) it might be very valuable to take the initiative so that at least some share of the surveys will be informative for the most important issues.
I don’t have a particularly informed/informative stance on how useful it’d be, unfortunately. (I guess I can at least say it’d be nice if someone spent a few hours thinking further about it, but that’s true of many things.)
