Conjecture

Outsiders make the long jumps. Relatedness constrains migrant inventors 20 to 30 percent less than locals, and migrants spark unrelated diversification back home. In a knowledge collective the migrants are contributors who cross neighbourhoods; they are how the base escapes the ceiling of compounding only along related lines, so cross-neighbourhood contributions should be sought and credited, not discounted as off-topic.

    Relatedness matters about 20 to 30 percent less for migrant inventors compared to local inventors. Also, migrants are more likely to spark unrelated diversification back at home
