For some reason I expect more bitcoiners to appreciate the primacy of incentives, but it appears to require an economist :)
I'm especially surprised by how few technical bitcoiners appreciate incentives. Judging based on appearances, technical bitcoiners seem to think wire protocols, cryptography, and goodwill are what make bitcoin tick. Even the most naive non-technical bitcoiners are more sophisticated in this regard, eg infinity/21m and PoW.
