As a follow-up: If we have full labor input as baseline, we have other ways to adjust the price to steer behavior. For example, we could properly price in environmental cost and steer consumption towards a socioeconomic system that can survive the environmental crisis.
I see the framing of "optimal" pricing as inherently ideological. "Optimal" for achieving which socioeconomic goal?
Pricing externalities is not a feature unique to LTV.
Is your position that your pricing is not more "optimal" than market based pricing? Just because you're using moral terms doesn't mean you're not making a value judgement.
