Your argument is so removed from the point, it’s an entirely different conversation.
I already contribute time and code to open source projects, and I promise you’ll have heard of some of the things I contributed a lot to. That’s beside the point.
This is like saying “I’d prefer if doctors took their time with patients to understand their cases and provide meaningful accurate resolutions to ailments instead of rushing” and you replying with ”oh yeah, are you willing to contribute with medicine and triage?”.
Similar arguments could be made about the US republic. The land of Washington, Jefferson, Franklin and Lincoln, now also speed running its way to failed state status and being run and supported by loons.

How does someone being incentivized to sell a vulnerability to a private organization over disclosing it publicly preserve a "high trust society"? Do you mean in the context of a "deceptively high-trust society"?
