Your method is selective, and as I've stated elsewhere seems to revolve
around your 'needs', most of which have been impressed in you by
external forces with motives NOT friendly to your, or your specie's
continued survival.

I'm not sure what the point is. Could you clarify?

My method is selective. Money models reality. I'm just trying to make it model better. Model complexity has a cost too, but generally more accurate is better.

Absolutely.

I think society as a whole should, where appropriate, set up a mechanism as I described above. What's the TrueCost of a building being painted white instead of black? Does white distract, manipulate, affect? Does black? What about indoor lights turning bluer after lunch? (companies actually do the latter for improving employee performance)

If you see value in finding out, go for it. But please don't try to charge me for it. That's just wrong.
