 The problem with this gated institutional narrative is that in general, it doesn't contain the most important ideas. And that is where the gating function comes in. The most important ideas are likely to be the ideas that are the most disruptive:
-- What if the entire food pyramid, for example, was wildly off? What if fats were not the great danger we thought they were and those waving, uh, fields of wheat that are fabled in American song. In fact, give rise to carbs, which are very dangerous to us all.
-- So if everything were inverted, let's say we're in a world where instead of banishing volatility during the so-called great moderation, before 2008, we were actually building the Tinder for the world's largest financial forest fire.

-- What if in fact, we had all sorts of things, exactly backwards, and completely wrong?

 These sorts of ideas, can't be entertained inside of the gated institutional narrative.
