- [6655138-019](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6655138-019) [mechanism/argued] -- The possibility loop generalizes the function Hayek assigned to the price system: where prices aggregate information about scarcity, the validation pool aggregates information about generative quality.
  > The reconciliation is that the possibility loop generalizes the price-system function: where prices aggregate information about scarcity, the validation pool aggregates information about generative quality (Hayek 1945).
