Student fury over 'impossible' economics exam
I've never taken economics, but is it possible that this is sort of a combinatorial reason? Like, adding the N+1th person implies coordinating with N other people, so that's a quadratic growth. I'm not really sure if that's realistic though...

That's quadratic growth for the city, not
per person
. It's linear growth per person.
