I would interested if grant proposals which do _not_ get funded, show less of language homogenization than ones that do. Although, it still wouldn't tell you if the idea space is being constricted; that seems like a much more difficult thing to measure. It could just be the equivalent of everyone at court speaking the way the king does, because he's the king. Winning grants probably get read, and imitated, more than other grant proposals that don't get funded. Which might also happen with ideas, but I'm not convinced that is what is measured here. |

How much of the homogenization is due to “broader impacts” and “intellectual merit”. Which became the default lingo of nsf grants in about 1997
