Originally shared by Curt Thompson This is an interesting theory, but I notice the author has to omit one of the most important Heinlein novels to make it work. Time Enough For Love was written in the very early 70s and was a straight (heh) extrapolation of the chaotic and frenetic zeitgeist of that era. http://www.locusmag.com/Perspectives/2012/11/the-joke-is-on-us-the-two-careers-of-robert-a-heinlein/
This is why, in the Diaspora!FATE-based Game of Thrones game a friend ran, I made sure all ten Aspects could be self-compelled to avoid attending a wedding. The GM could get me to the wedding, sure, but he was going to have to hand me a big stack of FATE points to do so. Only time I've ever cheesed FATE, and I'm still amazed the character functioned as anything other than a wedding-avoider.
