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”
