  1. I think a good example of this is the situation that led to the Dust Bowl. For a long time in the US, whenever farming in an area became poor, people would move to a new area and start farming there instead. America was viewed as a land of plenty, there was so much great land, why bother trying to work a subpar field when you can go somewhere else and get great results for minimal effort. This led to a severe lack of agricultural skills in a widespread area. Farmers weren't forced to stick around and learn the land. This is the kind of thing I think Harmony is referring to when talking about people of the Basin didn't have to struggle for anything. He did tell Kelsier that he had it in hand. Perhaps his grand plan was taking the Basin to the brink of destruction to force them to develop tech, or even just get them in the mindset of working for progress instead of being content with the Basin. Part of that plan could have been appearing weak to Wax, to ensure that his Sword would perform the tasks required of him. With how he manipulated Wax with Lessie and how casually he lies to Kelsier we know he's not opposed to deception.
