Interesting. I've heard of ideas from the economic calculation problem mentioned in previous years when people described the soviet collapse, but it's good to find an actual name to the concept.
Reading some of the comments to that original article have helped me a little this morning, but I'm still unsure of the article's primary intent. Some of those comments eventually led me to a 2009 TED talk from Bernard Litaer. His presentation also addresses the idea that economic sustainability requires a balance between efficiency and resilience. This concept seems appropriate to "post-autistic economics", so perhaps this preconception is why I seem determined to pursue my mental detour. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nORI8r3JIyw
I think the video is an overview of an article that delves into his mathematical model of inefficiency as a long-term virtue for ecological sustainability. (Link in the other thread in this post.)
