- When creation gets orders of magnitude cheaper you can curate post facto.
- When creation is expensive, you have to curate pre facto.
- Post facto curation means there's a cacophony to sift through, but if there's some way to emergently sort the best to the top, you can find the diamond in the rough.
- Pre facto curation means that some great things that are novel might not be found in the first place.
- Pre-facto curation is better for convergence and consistency.
- Post-facto curation is better for finding divergence and novelty.
- Though if the post-facto curation is a social sifting process which is at scale itself average, it might still pull towards convergence.
