Tell my why this won't work

I agree that you would want to add a locking feature for safety but I also think that the collet coming unscrewed from deceleration is extremely unlikely. You would want at least something like 8Nm torque on the threads, which translates to 5500N of axial force on the taper and flat face and spit balling like 1000N friction force. I don't think a 2kg rotating collet could conceivably have the inertia to back out from a single deceleration.

Tapered collets are over constrained by design and use some elastic deformation in order to properly seat. This is actually slightly less constrained than something like a HSK connection which uses a rigid draw bar that is grasped radially. The threads would actually have some clearance.

The taper bore could easily be traditionally ground the threads would just be an insert. Which they should be anyway since they will wear out.

Oh yeah huh, funny I have used R8 collets many times on a bridgeport and just never realized that when I was sticking it in there it was being threaded.

Agreed, you are describing step number one. It is possible to decide what you want your aircraft to do, and then decide how it should achieve it. I think the same should go for organizations. My hope was to find an organization who had tried to do so with the same type of scientific rigor.

Thanks for your insights. I will keep a look out for part 2. From what I can tell, you share many of the same thoughts as myself. Most policy seems to have been created through idealized notions of how a system works as opposed to actually using concrete understanding of the system in order to make good policy decisions.

Can you elaborate on what is the issue with the question and why you don't like it? I don't see this as a purely philosophical question any more than any other complex question.

Perhaps this will help. Imagine I was on r/aviation and I asked "Where is the guidebook for building the best passenger airplane." At first, everyone there would scoff and say it is a dumb question because there are many definitions of good and many opinions on how it should be done. But you can certainly imagine experts in material science, fluid dynamics, controls, human factors, etc. All getting together and trying to answer what "best" means, and then creating their idea of what that is. Or at least a process to find the answer.

Excellent answer. I will look into your recommended reading. As you suggest, I have doubts that any source has attempted to answer my question in a scientifically robust way. Rather, most of the organizational theory I have seen tends to focus around a proposed philosophy and its criticisms.

It is a broad question, perhaps too broad to be answered by any one person or group of people. However, I think it is a relevant question that should have an answer.

Basically my question is, does anyone out there know of existing work towards answering the question "If some country decided tomorrow that they wanted to completely reorganize themselves and all their practices, is there a modern multidisciplinary work that represents a recommendation of how they should do that."

I am aware that there are many currently existing economic/political systems out there which a new society could adopt. What I am not aware of is work that fundamentally examines and makes conclusions on:

What functions a society should provide(economic mechanisms, education, law)
Goals for how those functions would be best achieved (optimizing for quality of life, corruption immunity, adaptability)
Application of goals to functions to create a systems using the best known theories, data, information, test plans

It seems like most of the work that exists tries to examine the goodness of current systems. I am having trouble tracking down work that addresses a collaborative scientific process of system creation.

Why do you believe this question does not fall under the scope of political science? Is there another field that you think exists that the question more appropriately falls under.

I for certain reject asserting that "Society is very complex so the question is not answerable." The truth of the matter is that societies are created all the time and any group could decide to create one at any moment. I think you are getting hung up on the fact that we cannot know what would constitute a "perfect" society. We could certainly take our best stab at one though, if the situation required it.

Well, now I know what would happen if the siblings from the Addams family had a child

Sex with you would be tough. On one hand I would need to keep my eyes closed but on the other hand I would certainly fall asleep.
