@evan yeah, i agree, it reminds me of a rule introduced into an already-designed game because they realized it was unbalanced. I would argue that it hasn't really worked, and the stock market is still largely a force for tricking people into buying into things they will lose money on. I would also, somewhat tongue-in-cheek, note that with this widespread acceptance of memecoins and Kalshi, maybe people's investing habits are not affected by the existence of insider trading?
