I'm not sure volunteer labor of the Wikipedia sort is a resource that
can be significantly allocated, other than by an invisible hand. I
wonder if it'd be possible to prove that a [[laissez-faire]] approach
to notability produces a [[Pareto efficient]] allocation of resources.
I see no reason why the removal of the space
constraint should change
the *ideal* subject matter distribution substantially.
Doesn't the term "ideal" essentially mean "without
constraints"?
