That’s pretty messed up. This thread is a good examination of the flaws of blame vs blamelessness.
I wonder if we could somehow promote the idea that “outing yourself as incompetent or malevolent” is heroic and venerable. Like with penetration testers, if you could, as an incompetent or malevolent actor, get yourself into a position of trust, then you have found a flaw in the system. If people got big payouts and maybe a little fame if they wanted it for saying. “Oh hey, I’m in this important role, and I’m a total fuck up. I need to be removed from this role”, that might promote them doing so, even if they are malevolent but especially if they are incompetent.
Possible flaws are that this would incentivize people to defect sometimes, pretending to be incompetent or malevolent, which is a form of malevolence, but this could get out of control. Also people would be more incentivized to try to get into roles they shouldn’t be in, but as with crypto, I’d rather have lots of people trying to break the system to demonstrate it’s strength than security through obscurity.
