an ideological attraction to libertarianism is BY FAR the main reason for disagreement [with singleton strategies/hypotheses]. Advocacy of a single control system just sounds too evil for them to bite that bullet however strong the arguments for it.

Any practical advice on how to overcome this failure mode, if and only if it is in fact a failure mode?
