I feel like a lot of the people who are into salary transparency stuff are not high earners. I would like to see some game-theoretic analysis of salary disclosure dynamics from someone who is on the right tail of the distribution; my suspicion is that salary disclosure is bad for the rightmost X% of the distribution, where X is somewhere in the 10-50 range, depending on things like:
* What is the scope of the distribution? Industry, company, friend group?
* What are the social dynamics of their company/industry like?
* Is there a partitioning mechanism that reduces the stress of having a wide range of salaries for the same conceptual job type?
