    True that.  Sometimes it helps to wave a lit lighter before the
    native worshippers of the imaginary hand, to get them to pay
    attention . . .

I see what you mean, but you are making a bad bargain.
Although with those people the result may be to get
their attention, with everyone else the result
is to endorse the supposition that everyone worships
and must worship the invisible hand.

You're focusing on the positive aspect and not counting the negative
one.
