But presumably if we move to a patronage system there will be a market of patrons, so if you offend one group of patrons you're likely to be liked by another group of patrons. Just as today, if one publisher dislikes your manuscript because it does not fit their image you go to another.

Also there will be a powerful incentive for patrons to not be arbitrary as if they are they are likely to attract less talent.
