Source refs: `video:predictive-history-cbamecnudxo@transcript:v1#seg-0017`, `video:predictive-history-cbamecnudxo@transcript:v1#seg-0018`
- diagnosis: Jiang says ancient monumental work was not organized around individual proprietary credit; it was organized around whether the shared vision was built.

- diagnosis: For Jiang, the desire to patent, get credit, and monetize an idea is part of why modern ideas become weak. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-vtnra-gnkm8@transcript:v1#seg-0068`
- model: The Bank of England solves the credit crisis by turning loans from personal loans to kings into loans to the nation, making repayment survive the death or deposition of any monarch.
