It's not easy because it isn't simple. How do get all of the universities to change their incentives to back this?

We agree - the "simple not easy" turn of phrase is speaking to that point. It is easy once implemented, but it isn't easy to transition. (I am academia-adjacent by marriage but closer to the humanities, so I understand the amount of work it would take to perform the transition.)

This isn't just not easy, it would probably be extremely political to change the structure of the NSF, National Labs, all universities and colleges, etc., so dramatically.
