tldr: power (or if you want, impact) is the linear dimension, likelihood adds a second dimension to the plane of trust.



In practice, likelyhood directly correlates with power. Perhaps there is causation (power corrupts?)


Some people are more responsible than others.

For example, one's spouse typically has a lot of power, but hopefully a low likelihood in practice.


I need data on that. I haven't seen that in practice.
