1) The amount of social capital that’s allocated in this community is too little.
2) Social capital is allocated for the wrong reasons.
I’m not sure what case you are making. When it comes to 1) there are communities where job offers are given based on the social capital that the person earned in the past. There are other communities where the job offers are rather given based on the skills as they are assessed in an interview.
I would expect our community to put less weight on social capital acquired in the past when given job offers then most other communities. It’s debatable whether that’s good or bad.
When it comes to 2) it might be that social capital is allocated based on a variable like personal charisma instead being allocated for past accomplishments. If that’s the case that would be more problematic.
Are you arguing 1) or 2) or do you see something else?
There are two hypothesis here:
1) The amount of social capital that’s allocated in this community is too little.
2) Social capital is allocated for the wrong reasons.

I’m claiming 1) and 2) together, in point of fact. I’ve been claiming this for awhile.
