The Krugman paper is fun and written with a satyrical intent:
Recent progress in the technology of space travel […] raise the distinct possibility that we may eventually discover or construct a world where orthodox economic theory applies.
Despite playfulness, it actually goes in the opposite direction than we want (or at least I). Instead of using sci-fi as a device to jailbreak the neoclassical econ paradigm, he brings interstellar trade within that same paradigm, showing that neoclassical can also apply to interstellar trade – and that such application is about as meaningless as applications of that theory here on Earth.
Good catch on this one, I did not know about it.
