For whatever it’s worth, this seems right to me, and I do want to make sure that people know that I do think CFAR should try to be more legible at the margin
I mentioned this in my writeup above:
I think that CFAR is still likely optimizing too little towards legibility, compared to what I think would be ideal for it. Being legible allows an organization to be more confident that its work is having real effects, because it acquires evidence that holds up to a variety of different viewpoints.
I do think the question of what the correct outcome measurements for an impact evaluation would be is non-trivial, and would be interested in whether people have any good ideas for good outcome measurements.
Yes I don’t fully understand why they’re not legible. A 4 day workshop seems pretty well-placed for a carefully done impact evaluation.
