Moreover, almost everyone involved figures out what's going on, sooner or later: https://jakeseliger.com/2014/04/27/paying-for-the-party-eliz..., and typically sooner.

Notice the date stamp on both of those. This is hardly new news. Years ago I was teaching the LSAT and the guy who owned the company told me to read Beer & Circus by Murray Sperber, which fits the genre.
