I vibe with the sentiment “particularly uncomfortable with people in the meta space deferring to authority”, but I think it’s too strong. e.g. I think it’s valuable for people to be able to organize big events, and delegate tasks among the event organizers.
Maybe I’m more like “I feel particularly uncomfortable with people in the meta space deferring without high bandwidth, and without explicit understanding that that’s what they’re doing”.
I think the important thing with delegation which Howie pointed out, is that there is a social contract in the example you gave of event organising between the volunteer / volunteer manager or employer / contractor where I’d expect that in the process of choosing to sign up for this job, the person makes a decision based on their own thinking (or epistemic deference) to contribute to this event—I think this is what you mean by high bandwidth?
If so, I feel in agreement with the statement: “I feel particularly uncomfortable with people in the meta space delegating choice without high bandwidth, and without explicit understanding that that’s what they’re doing”
