3) Frictions (70s-80s): best understood as generational frictions
-on mathematical tools to model dynamics (incl ratex)
-on empirical strategies (structural, Vars, calibration, etc)
-on research and policy cultures (models used academia, policy and the forecasting business largely diverge)

I'm an Old Hand LaTeX guy, now writing more in #Quarto, with {tinytex} at my side. Who's this new Typst kid? Do I want to learn a new language?
Donald Knuth was so confident of TeX-- design frozen, vers 3.14, 3.145, only approaching \pi.
Enter: A newer kid on the block, "ratex"
