New Cause Area Proposal

Epistemic status - statistically verified.

I'm writing this post to draw peoples' attention to a new cause area proposal - haircuts for alignment researchers.

Aside from the obvious benefits implied by the graph (i.e. haircuts having the potential to directly improve organizational stability), this would represent possibly the only pre-singularity opportunity we'll have to found an org named "Clippy".

I await further investment.
