Small mindspaces would make CEV easier, so large mindspaces have to be a problem at some level.

Historical trends suggest increasing cooperation.

CEV is an algorithm, not a continuation of historical trends. Getting the algorithm right might make use of stuff like those trends, though.

The "if we knew more" part of CEV sure sounds like a continuation of historical trends.
