• Read my other comment, it absolutely has been tried. If your point is that the relatively few historical examples are a sufficient sampling of data to determine that people sharing tools can never work, then I’m afraid you don’t understand numbers, nor historical analysis.

        You can learn from what has and has not worked, and analyze structures. It’s possible! You just have to do it.
