I think that maybe “Machines of Loving Grace” shouldn’t qualify for different reasons: it doesn’t really depict a coherent future in a useful level of detail, it instead makes claims about different aspects of life in isolation. My sense is that currently we’re in short supply of utopian visions, even without specifying any viable path of how to get there.
What do you think about adding a flag regarding whether or not an essay discusses the path from now to then, and people can filter based on it?

Sure that works.
