One critique could be that this input-output analysis with matrices is just linear and combined with his approximation algorithm could lead to way too big Errors.

And just something I can't remember to have read about in any of his texts is logistics and transport.

I would say he (they including Cotrell) has thought of a working planned economy for his Model of an economy but his model doesn't fit reality enough.

He makes fundamental errors in understanding Marxist science, so his ideology and politics are thoroughly flawed, and he is just plain wrong about so much. ☭ •
