Okay, I think this account is going to rage-quit, but for any witnesses, I want it to be clear that this person is obviously being disingenuous and is purposely distorting what I’m saying. It should be clear that EA is not excluding people from the developing world. The main reason we haven’t done more outreach there is probably inertia—few current EAs are natives of the developing world. One reason that there hasn’t been a huge impetus to recruit in the developing world is the far lower average incomes. But EAs have no intention to exclude anyone.
