Marc, thanks as always for the history and insights. On Libor, missed in it problems and warts is the effect of Goodhart’s law, which Marilyn Strathern summarizes as “When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure.” Having worked in rates’ market through Libor’s twilight years, I can say it definitely had it problems but also the replacements our all-knowing monetary overlords are promoting do not fully replace the risk that Libor captured.

Thanks for the "Rigged" reference! It goes directly to my to-do list.
