Sure. I understand that I've been insta-downvoted for that, but it doesn't change that I think it's worth considering.

We (in the West) like play because we believe that play influences learning: we have a very positive view of play, which I generally agree with. But, we have to consider that play, depending on the nature of it, has potential negative consequences as well. I'm suggesting that in a highly meritocratic society, alternative dominance rankings cannot be allowed/encouraged.

Another commenter indicates that they would value a discussion: but the current culture of downvoting for disagreement seems counterproductive to open discussion.
