As I wrote, Skin in the Game is necessary but not sufficient. Skin in the game is a deterrent. But my central idea about SITG is evolutionary: dangerous engineers exit the system (which happened unfortunately). But this does not fully protect the (naive) public.

To draw from @nntaleb’s thinking, the fact that the CEO got in the submarine and risked death means that he had full faith in the product. The only way to fix that irrationality is with regulation!
