Ah, I know what it is. Its the fried egg issue. The yoke is the
opportunity costs. The white is the
"play" and "exploration" that needs to be done for long term survival.
Do you really need telescopes?
Not if you are a yoke person but if you see an approaching asteroid AND
you have done your
rocket science AND you have done your nuclear physics AND you have done
your diplomacy
to organize people THEN you may be able to save the human race.
Bottom line:
Long term verses short term gains.
