If people don't measure, it does not mean they are not clever enough.
So I disagree with what was said.
Often the opposite is true, as the methodology and matrix they use (and evolution of it maybe 100's of years) is for the exact focuses the choose for themselves or for the "House" / royalty or authority above them.
People today are deliberately not selecting things to measure and using it for their own benefit.
They know what not to care about and accept only certain exchanges that benefit them more often.
For example: Business itself is about extraction, economy and taking from people to feed control or takeover. (short way to say it!) Manipulation is the choosing itself of any numbers towards profit and percentages from human bodies to increase the centre or owners (or many similar words).
Nobody really cares what you think (as a kind of quick test and you are mostly just a body inside 'the system' for the system and all life today is unfortunately inheriting that "taken from" starting point as systems (of people) get better at limiting or reducing choice to snowball that system or way of looking at others.
Hard to tell STEM people that it too (I.T.) is used for funding more "this" abuse than "that" solving things... but I don't want to pop people's bubble of safety either if they think otherwise. It's a hard one to escape when even your birth was started by inherited political ways (such as feeding you with money) as the very default for our very own lives coming from top down, with banks and those types of 'usury' people willing to add more desperate for money (debt) in order to get them to do what they want or have power / ownership over them.
I accept something better doesn't exist (unless you talk to me and make it happen) or isn't created as a 'job' to solve problems (duh who would make things against themselves!), but that's why we have to create our own better games as they and the history have surely proven otherwise that things don't change often enough unless we're part of it (and others can suggest how to be part of that- so message me and let's get talking about anything).
