It’s not really the “only example”, “fronteir events” when there is a commons, and the lower class can acquire property to produce goods that they sell on the open market, putting direct pressure on established wealth/rent seekers to lower prices closer to the cost of production. It happened a lot in the US in the 1700s and 1800’s hundreds, and with other colonies and when new “land” enter the market in general. like their 1900’s example mostly resulting from the GI bill and cars making land/jobs/productive property broadly availlable.
