It might be an improvement to account for the existence of "crap jobs." The only egalitarian model I know which accounts for them is Parecon (with balanced job complexes), but I'd like to think there are others.

Unfortunately, I was only at Twin Oaks for a very short time, so I don't know whether this applies to their problems...
