Another day, another rationalist/substack blogger writing about an established philosophical problem without mentioning the existing literature, and giving it a new name. Today it is "the problem of the many" for those that are interested: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/problem-of-many/ (although it's a paid post so maybe he mentioned it at the end or in the footnotes and I'm just not allowed to see it).
