Educational systems borrowed manufacturing efficiency from the industrial era, but teaching requires human judgment that can't be automated or centralized. Choosing a coach for your child needs trust and conversation, not formulas. Freedom and local choice consistently beat top-down control.
Yeah, this is, I think this is the overarching argument I'd make is Taylorism. I'll give it a lot of crap, but I actually think it was great. The Industrial revolution was awesome. It made things super cheap, but it's made for machines and people are not machines. And so when you're dealing with the people business, let the machines do the machine thing. But if you're trying to say like, what's the right coach for my kid? There's no process to tell you what the right coach is. It's you sitting across the table from the coach having a conversation saying, is this person going to love my kid? Are they going to resonate with each other? Are they going to understand each other? Is this relationship of trust? There's nothing that you can do to replace that kind of just authentic relationship that goes back and forth. And so I think you're not going to design a law that says, hey, let's optimize for that. The only thing you're going to do is empower people and let them make their own decisions. And that's why, you know, freedom almost always beats some kind of top down control.
