You are such a gentleman John. My American tendencies would begin such a post with something like: “Earth to FT, come in please.” Best I leave it to you!
Reminds me of the techno optimist screed published by Marc Andreesen on free market capitalism. He sounds like he was the first to discover Ayn Rand and is oblivious to all the critique (outright dismissal by thinking people on the left snd the right) of the last 2 or 3 decades.
In fairness, I agree with your view on Gillian’s work in general. My instinct is that we in our bubble continue to underestimate how enshrined conventional thinking is in the mainstream business world, and press.
