But some systems are based on abundance. The network effect helps us understand that for connection-based systems, more is actually better, not worse. The system works better when more people use it. The cultural turning point of our moment in time, the one that’s just beginning to be realized, is that education is an abundant system, not a scarce one. Industrialism is based on scarcity. So is traditional college admissions.

Unintended Consequences: The overall e-tendering process is designed on a cover your ass system, a paper trail to demonstrate ‘transparent’ decisions being made. In this way the system maintains a competitive edge, but is a slimmer and fairer process, which produces better outcomes for all parties. The current system isn’t just bureaucratic.
