Conjecture
Compounding knowledge gets more expensive per step. Hidalgo reports that sustaining Moore's doubling now takes more than 18 times the researchers it took in the early 1970s. That is an objection we have to answer. If each correction is harder to find than the last, a public correctable record compounds at a falling rate unless the number of contributors grows faster than the difficulty, and that is the case for agents doing the contributing.
