What are some important freedoms that traditional freedom indices (Freedom House, Heritage Economic Freedom, etc) are missing? (note: I *don't* mean in the "real freedom means high speed trains, being safe and having public healthcare" direction, I mean like actual freedoms, but ones that usual indices neglect)

I'll start the bidding with: * Land use / zoning restrictions * What percent of the world population can enter the country without a visa

Freedom of entry is an interesting one, bc most of these measures are looking at these freedoms from the perspective of the citizens who are actually under the given regime... whereas this one looks at it moreso from the perspective of non-citizens not subject to the regime. How are you thinking about this?

There's also the reverse — as a citizen of __, what percent of the world can you enter without a visa Technically there's an index for this but I have yet to see it mentioned in any of the bigger discussions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henley_Passport_Index

How do you think about land use in terms of right to destroy? Feels undesirable to let people buy healthy/thriving land, extract resources from it while ~permanently destroying the ecosystem (maybe unintentionally), then discard it. Not sure this is solvable with pricing better.
