The bureaucratic reinforcement of academic mediocracy is nothing new. I always think of "Gulliver's Travels" on the topic.

Excellent point on leaders. It is virtually impossible to get great art by committee. The systematic development of informed consent is not a powerful weapon, but it is often better than nothing we would have otherwise.

Noam Chomsky is in his nineties. It is difficult to know why he changed, but based on what I know about him, it was not for careerist reasons. Of course, we don't know what happened, and I no longer think of him as a pundit, but that doesn't negate his work. We stand on his shoulders in our work, regardless of things he may say in his nineties. I am not sure if you know many ninety-year-olds, but I have recently engaged with several of them I learned years ago, and they seem to have diminished mental capacity.
