I think there’s a relevant distinction to be made between field building (i.e., developing a new area of expertise to provide advice to decision-makers—think about the history of gerontology) and movement building (which makes me think of advocacy groups, free masons, etc.). Of course, many things lie in-between, such as neoliberals & Mont Pelerin Society.
Yeah, that’s true, though in Luke’s treatment both are discussed and described as roughly equal—there’s no indication given that either should be more promising on priors and, as you say, they will often overlap.
