"Here's how people who don't suck behave" is less useful for that than "here's what environments look like that don't make people who suck as often."

What would such environments look like? Can you point out any existing examples? What kinds of costs do those environments impose on healthy people? Is torture vs dust specks relevant? Btw you don't suck.
