A retroactive grant for creating the HPMoR audiobook (Eneasz Brodski)?

I reached EA through hpmor (followed by lesswrong), and I might not have read hpmor if it wasn't in audio (I almost only listen to books). 

So big big fan! <3

And FYI, if you're reading this, I'm part of the difference you made

Why not ask Eneasz?

We are building a marketplace (newly published site, very rough-looking) for impact markets. We think it's importance to set it up right as there are short-term and long-term risks involved we want to mitigate. We would be happy to facilitate this sort of funding between Eneasz and retro funders down the line or soon as part of an experiment. (I would personally be quite excited to see retro funding of his video, Shit Rationalists Say.)

I have no strong opinions on whether this is a good or a bad idea, all things considered. But:

• I feel uneasy about retrofunding as an idea.
• Retrofunding feels more like 'so-called philanthropists giving money to their pals' than 'high-impact EA philanthropy'.
• Retrofunding also feels particularly bad for optics.

If you have an argument for why I should feel different, I'd appreciate if you explain the argument rather than downvoting.

If I were Thomas Kwa right now I would be offering Eneasz $10,000 for 5% of his impact certificate for making the HPMOR podcast.

While I was not brought to EA/rationality through HPMoR, I strongly endorse this proposal.
