@tijl Yes, I've tried to acknowledge these variables (individual talent, utilitarian reward) in the text. When I think about equality of outcome I mean in terms of reward, for demographics, not vocations for individuals.

The idea of "Lost Einsteins" acknowledges that there are people particularly suited to important breakthroughs. I also mention that utilitarian achievements get rewarded naturally, the financial rewards for people's efforts don't though, which is unfair, and could be mitigated.
