Do you see the platform then providing for now "reptile" autonomy (mobility, navigation, localisation) to get started fast, so customers can focus on their "neo-cortex" applicative needs?
(please let me emphasize this "reptile" autonomy is today perhaps the hardest/time-consuming part killing many startups, as you nicely explain in the OP---Moravec's paradox)
Several recent books on the topic present psychedelics as a tool for Science. Most link to the famous quote from Stan Grof on psychedelics as the "microscope" for the mind (or telescope). It really does not look like getting through the Eastern philosophy lens... And the new center's backers seem motivated by the tooling potential too...

The books I refer to include Pollan's recent book (cited several times in this thread), some of Grof publications, "A Really Good Day" by Ayelet Waldman, a plethora of "reports" from people's experience on Medium, and preview on Consciousness Medicine from Françoise Bourzat.
Wouldn't be enough to get unlimited downloads? Upper cap on the uploads often does not affect CI pipelines, unless CI includes packaging (which I would rather push toward CD).
