This implied that we could safely build a system to block things that were very different from this "typical" use and not catch too many dolphins in our tuna nets:

So Kathryn and I were talking about this, and she said, "Yeah, all complex ecosystems have parasites." I was thunderstruck.

there's a deep piece of wisdom here

Something like:

- There is a certain class of systems (protocols, markets, ecosystems, economies...) which are very important for human flourishing

- Their "correct" behaviour always includes a non-zero amount of activity that we'll think is morally wrong (fraud, parasitism, etc) because these systems are open and dynamic and involve individual agency

- If you try to hard to squeeze out the bad behaviour, you can kill the system

That seems like the neverending problem that trying to fix, makes it worse.  It seems like the best way is to have contingency plans for the problems versus trying to eradicate problems.  Maybe?
