I think it’s more like: CEA projects are limited by other essential resources (like staff, management capacity, onboarding capacity) before they run out of money.
(I agree it’s not 0⁄1 exactly, but it’s not as easy as you’d think to just spend more money and get more good stuff.)
Maybe in the longer term it’s easier to do so … scaling up all of the things you mention? Of course a big consideration is ‘whether we can use/trust non-EA-aligned people to do good work for a salary’. But I suspect in many/most cases this is doable.
I don’t think it’s so 0⁄1. Does CEA really have enough funds to fund every project they believe has positive net value?

Ben Millwood’s summary seems basically right to me.
And yup, the team has tripled over the past year, but scaling the further team is a top priority, hence my interest in getting people to apply :)
