The Question Bounties program will attach prizes once it is funded.\"\n---\n\n## Why it matters\n\nThe [Proximity Pull](/diagnosis/proximity-pull/) is partly a moral question and partly an information gap. The information gap can be closed, and then we can see what people choose.\n\n## Where to start\n\nA scoped survey experiment could test how comparisons across distance affect choices, with its cost and limits stated. The moral side is mapped in the [Disagreement Register](/record/disagreements/).\n",
