My experience with consulting firms is there are two paths for high performers. Either you move into a sales/relationship focused role (which there are fairly limited slots for) or you move client side and probably buy from your old employer. The good workers do well either way (when I say move client side, I mean to high level positions - importantly one with control over a budget to afford consultants) and the consultancy makes money both ways.

This is somewhat to credit AI model design. I think this is how you'd want such models to behave with esoteric subject matter. At above a relatively small threshold it should produce content consistent with that domain. Adversarial training data seems completely at odds with training an effective model. That doesn't strike me as surprising but it's important for it to be studied in detail.

This program sounds great and I think we should incentivize it. Unfortunately, I think it requires a constitutional amendment to work. We can’t rely on well meaning administrators to overlook the slave labor exemption for criminal punishment; these things will be exploited.

I guess with knowledge work there is some protection because it’s hard to force. Though, it would be desirable to extend such programs into other forms of work.
