It's deep hubris in our leaders that assumes existing capital/values/structures/motivations are sufficient to allow newcomers ( & new generations) to contribute..

  However. Bell Labs did it, so what sort of humility existed then that (mostly) does not exist now?!?
Tangentially, I have not personally tried, but it seems possible:

("Unintentionally moderate"[1-2] business thinkers like PG/YC partners do it all the time)

  Wonder if hubris is necessary for continued survival of the economy.
