Dare I say, as expected, offered an opportunity to actual do something,

With all the talent and expertise on this list, surely someone could

But, again, hyper-focus on how we vote is probably no better than

way we could compose multiple mechanisms into some magic machine

then compare that machine to data taken from the world and tweak
the machine until it seems to work, then base our predictions off
that machine. [sigh] Sounds like science fiction to me!
Sound like history to me. Although there are a few things about our
current situation that are unique enough to make it hard to draw
comparisons.
