+* realistic worldbuilding is hard, people write aliens or foreigners just like themselves; it's easy to fall into this trap even if you ostensibly know better
+* Planecrash summary
+* Keltham's proposal
+* This entire idea of "The government can't discriminate by race or sex" is specific Earth-craziness that only makes sense in relation to other Earth-craziness; it's not something you would spontaneously invent if you actually grew up in an IQ 140 Society that taught everyone probability theory as normative reasoning: in this essay, I will first explain the principle, and then dissect Keltham's example of military service which is the _uniquely worst possible example_
