I think the Hayek vs. Hayek needs to apply appropriate weights to the different criteria. I heard Hayek speak when he came to UCD in the 1980s. Bur frankly I would much rather have listened (using the term loosely) to Salma.

I suppose that's why we have both libraries and cinemas.

I suppose another way of framing it is who is more substitutable to the world as a whole.
