The term "paper" usually implies a study of a factual topic. If you
set up reasonable criteria for papers (studies of factual topics), you
may get a sufficient number of good studies of relevant factual topics.
And yet the whole thing may be totally devoid of political or ethical
concern, and may tend to frame the issue as merely a practical
or technical one.
I don't think that is a good outcome. Do you agree?
If so, a plan is needed for avoiding it.
