In order for faster ems to talk to each other naturally, they have to be closer to each other, and thus occupy more expensive prime real estate. So they don't want to be faster than they need to be to match the other tasks with which they coordinate.
That doesn't make intuitive sense to me. Surely even fast ems living in cheap real estate will still have plenty (millions? billions?) of people to talk to in real time, even if they have fewer people to talk to compared to those living in prime real estate? Given that running slower has significant costs (you have to pay the same storage costs as faster ems but can do less work, not being able to accumulate experience/knowledge as fast as others and losing competitive edge as a result) I don't see how it's worth those costs just to have more potential peo...
