How much better is society if it has a reliable tool to measure value? How much better is an electrical grid if you have a tool to measure electricity ? Saying a lot better doesn’t properly communicate it.
What if it’s a thing you have to do regardless. We could measure value as small tribes through first person observation of human action. It’s the global layered economy that lacks a reliable unit of measure. But we did it anyway. This is not like simply never building an electric grid until we had a tool / unit to measure it. This is like building and using and living with an electric grid that’s never been measured. Possibly worse.
