>As a libertarian, Thiel must be familiar with this story.

I'm sure he is. Life imitating art. IMHO, a libertarian island like this would fail spectacularly, but I think there are probably multiple motivations at play. One might be Thiels' desire/curiosity to realize and/or test his pet philosophy, but I believe the other is to address the problems I described.
