Thankyou for that, Cameron. I have a tiny little nitpick:

I didn't quite mean to imply that. Enforcement can be through other means
as well. Simple disapproval from others is a pretty strong disincentive.
That doesn't necessarily translate into exclusion from the community, just
lower status (and possibly lower pay, reduced possibility of receiving
grants, etc).
Cheers,
Michael
