I think this post makes a very good point in a very important conversation, namely that we can do better than our currently identified best interventions for development.
The argument is convincing, and I would like to see both more people working on growth-oriented interventions, and counter-arguments to this.
As a PhD in economics, this post may influence what topic I choose to work on during the dissertation phase. I think most EA economists at the start of their PhD would benefit from reading this.
